One day it dawned on me. I had become the very thing I hate– a hypocrite. A pretender. Two-faced. I’d written sermons about people like me. Christians who care more about their appearance than integrity.
I knew what I needed to do. I’d written sermons about that too! 1 John 1:8-9 says, “If we say we have no sin, we are fooling ourselves, and the truth is not in us. But if we confess our sins, he will forgive our sins because we can trust God to do what is right.” I needed to confess. What is confession? Well confession is not complaining. If I merely recite my problems and rehash my woes, I’m whining. Confession is a radical reliance upon grace.
