Secrets and Regrets-Pillar

no matter how hard you try to
you can't make the clock rewind to the moment that you lied to yourself
it never really mattered how they felt

your secrets and regrets are keeping you from going very far
and you can't let all this get you down and keep you living in the dark
cause all you're looking for
is love
you're living in the dark
you just can't get enough
your secrets and regrets

 

So many times we have secrets we try to hide from people. We fool ourselves into thinking that we can hide behind fake smiles and polite conversation. We are afraid that if our brothers and sisters in Christ knew the "real" us then they would judge us and turn away. Unfortunately , there are many in the church who judges others. But that should not compel us to keep it all buried deep within ourselves. There is One who knows all of secrets and regrets-the Lord Jesus. 

 

Would not God find this out? For He knows the secrets of the heart. Psalm 44:21

 

God knows everything about us, all our secret desires, thoughts, and attitudes. The beauty of this is that HE loves us despite them. HE longs for us to come to Him and give all our secrets and regrets to Him. When we do, we find forgiveness, freedom and we can stop living in the dark, but rather in the light of His love.
