Real Conversations (Luke 8-10)Sýnishorn
Make sure you read today's text in a different version.
Have you ever held a secret you were certain would not be discovered? Maybe someone trusted you with something and asked you to never tell anyone. How did you feel as time passed? Holding things in can easily become a burden over time.
For example, have you ever lied to someone? Sometimes, in our lives, we commit a sin that we believe will remain secret. Sin is anything that violates how God has told us to think or live. It’s missing the mark. Scripture affirms that all of us are sinners, though we sometimes think we can keep it hidden from others forever. Unconfessed, unrepentant sin will often weigh on us and cause us to feel like we must tell someone. We often fail to consider that God already knows everything we have done – even every thought.
Luke 8:17 reads, “For nothing is hidden that will not be made manifest, nor is anything secret that will not be known and come to light.” The things we hide in the darkness will be brought into the light and revealed. Let’s take a few minutes today and consider the things in our life that we’ve sought to keep hidden in the darkness. We can confess any sin to the Lord and ask Him to forgive us, and He will. When we confess and ask His forgiveness, peace will fill our body and allow us to walk with the Lord more intimately.
Prayer:
Lord, reveal the sin in my life. I confess my sin to You now and receive your forgiveness.
