God Sees
Everything!
I acknowledged my sin to You, and my
iniquity I have not hidden. I said, “I will
confess my transgressions to the Lord,”
and You forgave the iniquity of my sin.
Psalm
32:5
Do ostriches really bury their heads in the sand to
“hide” from predators—as if closing their eyes will
make them invisible?
No, but they lay their eggs in the sand and stick
their heads in to check on and rotate the eggs
until they hatch. Even ostriches know that they
can’t hide from reality.
We sometimes think God can’t see us in our sin
if we don’t encounter Him in prayer or
worship.
But we can’t hide from God. He is all-seeing and
all-knowing; He knows what's in the heart of man
(John
2:25).
So we may as well raise our eyes and
meet Him
in honest confession and agree with Him about
our sin. Thankfully, our sins have been forgiven
(2 Corinthians 5:21).
God asks only that we
come to Him and receive His grace.
If there
is something you need to
confess to God, do it today and
be forgiven (1 John 1:9).
'We are not finished
with the
need of forgiveness when
we become Christians."
G. B.
