“This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.”

All,
This stands out because John says, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” How liberating is it to confess a sin? It frees you from the sin. It bonds you with a trusted friend and it’s gives you a community to help you walk through it. Do you have any sins that needs confessing? Please pray that we and our friends ask the Holy Spirit to reveal any areas of unconfessed sin(taken from Ken Boa’s Morning Affirmations). Please pray for Phil’s group.
