Have you ever been nervous about the way someone would respond to something you’ve done? It’s the rush of panic when you break something that belongs to a sibling. It’s that sinking feeling in your stomach when your teacher asks to speak to you after class. It’s the panic you feel when you do something your parents wouldn’t approve of. It’s natural to avoid having to face the facts of our poor decisions. We don’t have to take this approach with God. We don’t have to wonder how He’ll respond or what punishment He’ll pass along. Instead, we can be confident that when we confess our sins, or the things we do that are less than what God says is best, He will meet us with forgiveness and a way forward. 

Today, practice the act of confession. Take a few minutes and talk to God about anything you may have been holding back from bringing up. You can be confident that He will meet you with love, forgiveness, and kindness.
