Proverbs 28:13

"Whoever conceals their sin does not prosper, but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy." Proverbs 28:13.

Pastor Chris tweeted this November 24th and it stuck out to me. We tend to hide our sin whenever we do it. Unfortunately, many people who call themselves Christians condemn those who have slipped up. So when we sin, we usually like to keep it a secret, so we can keep up this persona of being "perfect." But this is what the Bible says NOT to do. We not only confess our sins to God, but we need to confess them to our trusted Christian friends, so we can get support and help. Also, when we hide our sin, we stop ourselves from helping those who have committed the same sin and need help. Don't keep things in the dark.
