Don`t hide


March 10 – Proverb 28:13 -
Don`t hide

     The writer continues with his pattern of proverb thought.  He states that the person who conceals his sin will not prosper.  Sin hinders the benefits and blessing of God and enables the devil, world and the flesh to rule a life.  Sin will always take you where you don`t want to go.  It will make you do things you never thought you would do.  Make you into a person you never thought you would be.  The way to deal with sin is to bring to the light.  Expose it. 1 Jn 1:9 states that if we confess our sins, the Lord is faithful and just to forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 
     The second part of the verse is a powerful truth.  It you confess your sins and renounce them you will find mercy from the Lord.  This is salvation at its most basic level.  God wants to extend mercy to you all you have to do is your part.  Like the prodigal you have your Father in heaven waiting to restore you.  Come to yourself.  Come back to the Father and receive full restoration.  Make that your aim today not only for yourself but those in your world.
