1 JOHN 1:9.
We all like to look our best. If we share our shortcomings, we might ruin our reputation. We could be misunderstood, or even rejected. If others knew our hidden sins, it could cause them to stumble. Instead of risking vulnerability and getting help, we put on a false front. We play a game of Christianese with others, with ourselves and even with God, all in the bid to pretend that all is well.
It is never healthy to play games with the Lord. If we want to be more Christlike, we need to confess our shortcomings/sins. He already knows our transgressions, but He likes for us to bring them to Him, being open and honest. And it is never too late to do that now!
