Why Confession Really Is Good for the Soul
When we act like confessing a common sin to someone is beyond embarrassing, we often betray an inherent belief in our own goodness.

Loving others as Christ calls us to requires more than just good feelings; we must forgive, pray for, and extend grace to those who hurt us. What a comfort to know that we don't have to love like this in our strength, but that it is Christ who loves through us!
There is so much freedom and joy that comes with opening our hands to God and letting Him use our lives for His purposes and glory!
How often do we find ourselves slipping into a prayer rut or skipping prayer in a season of discouragement? Paul admonishes us in Colossians to be steadfast and watchful in prayer, full of thanksgiving, aware of how God is working in us and in those around us.
Life can be hard, and the constant pressures can wear you down. When this happens, turn to Paul's words in Colossians 3.
