We all have things we’ve done that we’re not proud of.  Lapses in our character where we actually thought we could hide willful sins…but God saw everything.  And the longer we attempt to cover-up and rationalize sin, the harder it is to admit we’ve crossed the line.  David in Psalm 32:5 told the Lord, “I acknowledge my sin to You, and do not cover up my iniquity.”   The first part of David’s confession was Relent.  We need to yield to God and admit we’ve messed up.  The second part was Repent.  There needs to be true remorse and shame for our sin.  We’re sorry for what we’ve done, not just sorry we got caught.  Finally, we need to Remove the sin from our life…by whatever means it takes.  By keeping a short account with God, we won’t find ourselves outside His Will and far from His compassion.
