That is no secret

I believe that I am pretty good at keeping a secret; I have been trained to. There are things that will go to my grave with me because I was sworn to keep them secret, which is what I intend to do. Now, as I get older, it's not as much that I keep things secret as I just can't seem to remember anymore.

The other part of secrecy is that we try to keep things secret. We do everything in our power to keep our sins hidden from everyone else. Trust me, I do to. We don't like our secrecy but we know we must continue in it because we have no desire for others to find us out. We also know we are doing things we ought not to do because we try so hard to keep it hidden from everyone else. But, there is one more secret place I want to mention...

Today's word is Matthew 6:6, ESV, which reads, "But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you."

If you feel the need to tell that juicy secret, tell it to JESUS. He knows everything anyway; it's not like you are keeping anything hidden from Him. And, even though He knows all about our sin, He loves us anyway! So, confess those secret things to the One who is with you, even in your secrecy.

Then, pray for others that GOD will guide and direct them to find the peace and understanding and love that can only be found in Him. We all need each other. We need others to encourage us and lift us up and to pray for us, even pray for those things we ought not be doing. If we will earnestly pray one for another, GOD will reward us all, and that is no secret.

Be Blessed,
