Day Twenty Eight - The Light is On

Confession: We all have a great need for healing.  But we resist it.  We resist God.  We resist his forgiveness.  We resist happiness.

Be gentle with myself.  Be gentle with others, and never stop striving to be all that God created me to be:  the very-best-version-of-myself.

Sin is a sad thing.  It’s heavy and it makes us sad.  We carry it around with us.  Confession gives us a place to drop all of that stuff off.  To feel light, free, a fresh start.

A fresh start is a great thing.  There’s something powerful about going to confession and coming clean before God.  It allows us the opportunity to try again.

Now is a great time to go to confession.  Come before God and request a fresh start.

How have I found healing in confession?  God continues to love me even when I mess up.  I may not deserve forgiveness, but Jesus forgives me anyway.

Focus:

We all have a great need for forgiveness and healing.

Act:

No matter how long it has been, go to Reconciliation this week.

Pray:

Jesus, help me break through resistance and go to confession.  Help me to be gentle yet honest, and help me to accept the healing you want to give me.


Amen.
