confession

Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results. James 5:16 NLT

Confession of sin cleans out our soul, brings us closer to God and people. Confession of sin is a humbling process. It makes us vulnerable and soft.

We can hide lust from others but not God. We can hide our critical thoughts, but eventually they will come out. The more we hide the dirtier our souls become,  the more impacted our spirits become.

Coming clean allows us to have good fellowship with God and mankind.  Why would we want to stay dirty? Amen!
