The True Confession

Grace, mercy and peace to you.

Confession without repentance
Is like lying through your teeth
Not meaning a word
So insincere, you sin
All over again

Confession of one’s guilt unloads the weight of sin and makes your life brighter and open to new forgiveness and blessings.  Don’t hide your sins because I can see it, no matter what you do. Confess it at once, so you won’t sin no more, and I mean repent from your sins, not just confessing about it.

Confession without repentance will never work,  you will just sin once again.  Make a confession not out of duty but in your sincere desire to make it right with me, to establish connection once again.  Confession without repentance is like someone who wants to quit smoking, but is still holding a cigarette in their hands.  Unlighted, yes, but the temptation is still close at hand  which signifies they are still reluctant to abandon their vice.
