There are few things scarier than getting caught. I mean, we know there are limits to what we're allowed to do, but let's be honest, sometimes the intrigue and excitement of breaking the rules get the best of us. Before you know it, we're way over our heads and have taken things way too far. It's usually at this point when we get caught. Now it's in this moment where we can either come clean and "face the music," or we can attempt to lie, deny, and deflect our way out of the situation. 

Even though we know the truth will likely catch up with us, we tend to take the harder path and talk ourselves out of the situation. Typically, the second approach doesn't always work out as planned. Our spiritual lives are very similar. We know we've messed up. We've sinned. But, instead of owning up to it and talking to God about it, we try to avoid it or lie our way out of it. Yet, the Bible reminds us if we confess it, He'll forgive it.

As you read today's passage, ask yourself this: is there anything I need to confess right now?
