Have you ever tried to cover up your sin? Going to whatever lengths you can to try to bury it, so no one will see it or discover it? At some point, a lot of us have been in that place, where we are full of shame from our sin and fear of what may happen if someone discovered our shortcomings. We can see where David was coming from in his efforts to cover up his sin with Bathsheba. But God calls us to step into His light and to confess our sins, so that we don’t continue on in silence trying to fix what we have tarnished. We are continuing in our new series, Confessions: Erasing Shame and Experiencing Renewal, this week we will be diving into Gods mercy and how He is faithful to show us mercy. When we appeal to the character of God and appeal to the cleansing power of God, we can experience His great mercy. Rather than carrying it on our own, the Lord is calling us to confess, surrender, release our grip on struggling to clean ourselves up. We can’t do it without Him. When we believe in Him and turn toward Him, confessing before Him, He is faithful and just to forgive us and to show us mercy. He can mend what we have broken, and He can heal our heart, from what we have let in. We do not have to suffer in silence, no matter how easy it may seem to suppress it and clean it up on our own. We need Him. Join us in listening to the latest message of the series, God’s Immeasurable Mercy, and release your grip on the sin you may be trying to cover.
