Hidden sins affect every part of your life, from your marriage to your faith, even if no one else knows. Confess them to God, who offers mercy through Christ's sacrifice.

Hidden sins affect every part of your life, from your marriage to your faith, even if no one else knows. Confess them to God, who offers mercy through Christ's sacrifice.
Your secret sin is affecting the kind of spouse that you are. Your secret sin is affecting the kind of parent that you are. Your secret sin is affecting the kind of friend that you are, the kind of church member that you are, the kind of minister that you are. Even if no one ever finds out about that habit, even if no one ever sees that thought, that attitude, those words that you spoke in silence, maybe whispering some gossip to someone, even if no one sees that, even if that doesn't get exposed publicly or on a wide scale, Doesn't matter. It's still affecting you. It's affecting your conscience. It's affecting your confidence in your approach to God. It's affecting your belief in your identity in Christ. It's affecting everything about you. And God is calling today for his people to confess their sins before him. Now, thank God we understand that all wrath was poured out upon Christ. So there's mercy for you when you repent.
