“Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults.” Psalm 19:12.
I read an account of Michelangelo’s painting of the Sistine Chapel.
In the story, he was painting in a corner behind everyone’s view.
Someone said to him, “Forget that area, nobody can see it anyway.”
But Michelangelo replied, “I know it’s there.”
What you are in secret is what you are-
– nothing more or nothing less!
Through the years-
I’ve spoken with men and women who travel a lot.
And in almost every motel there are R-rated and X-rated films available.
“Nobody’s in here but me,” they say.
Are you sure?
Jesus is in that room.
What you are in that room when you think no one is around is what you really are.
Are you struggling with secret sins of the flesh?
Come to God.
Confess the sins.
Get cleansed by the blood of Jesus.
And sin no more!
Do not try but trust in His victory!
