Hiding or Exposed?

Our minds are tricky. Although we have been made alive in Christ and brought into the light, we still have the ability to hide in the shadows. Or, to at least think we are hiding in the shadows. In fact, we are not. Christ’s light shines everywhere. Our lives under the sun give us the false impression of shifting shadows. But to Jesus, who reigns over all, He sees things perfectly well as if they were shining brightly in the full day’s sun. 
What does this have to do with confessing sins? Just this, learn the facts of who Jesus is, where He is, what He is doing there? We are always in His immediate presence. That fact will be a deterrent from sin. Furthermore, if you have deluded yourself that there are some things Jesus doesn’t see or know about you, confess that, too. He is slow to anger and quick to forgive.
