Challenged

Today, I returned to LBC for a chapel. The reason I went to the chapel is because I was asked by an awesome friend, Todd Henley, to be there to support him as he talked about discipleship. The crazy thing is that what challenged me today wasn't the aspect of discipleship to a degree, but being challenged on confessing.

Todd shared that so many of us ask for forgiveness for stuff and say we will never do it again, but end up going back to the same sin and committing the same sin again. I don't know how many times that this has happened to me.

I urge you guys to look at how you are confessing sin. Sin is hard to get rid of, BUT you can get rid of it. So, when I ask for forgiveness from God from here on out, I want to be careful that I do not go back and do it again, because in a sense, this means I didn't really ask for forgiveness for real the first time.

It seems like a simple concept, but really, truly think about it.
