Go ahead and try
it. Try and hide what you are doing or
plan to do from the Lord. It cannot be
done. The Lord somehow knows all about
every detail of our living. He knows
what we are doing and even why we do it.
He knows what is on our minds. It
is impossible to hide anything from the Lord.
If you are doing
things you know you shouldn’t be doing and think that you are getting away with
it, think again. The only thing you are
accomplishing by not being upfront about your activities before the Lord is certain
destruction. When you do evil you are
not harming anyone but yourself. Trying
to hide or cover-up evil destroys the soul.
As much as you might
want to believe that God is in the dark and does not know what you are doing
with your life, it simply is not so. God
is light and His light penetrates the darkest soul. He knows all there is to know about you and
there is nowhere to hide from His gaze.
He knows and holds you responsible for what you do and accountable for
it.
In order to protect yourself
from self-destruction, live openly before the Lord. Be honest about what you are doing. Tell the Lord what you are doing. It benefits you, not the Lord. He already knows what you are doing. Your activities affect your heart, not
His. Honesty is the only policy that
works with the Lord. Confess any sin or
sinful thoughts you may have. Seek the
Lord’s forgiveness. And, with His help,
strive to change your behavior so that you don’t get yourself in a similar mess
down the road.
Develop a plan to
stay out of sin’s path and work the plan.
If you don’t work to help yourself you will lose the battle for your
soul. The Lord rewards those who are
faithful to Him so work hard at keeping your soul healthy and holy before
Him. You can do it. The question is, “Will you do it?”
