"Where is the god who can compare with you—wiping the slate clean of guilt?"
There is a confession and forgiveness in our hymnal where the pastor first confesses to the church and they forgive him, then the church confesses to the pastor and receives forgiveness. I need that.
I had a really rough week and an intense dream last night. I was trying to get out of some crime/misdeed/shortcoming and my brother, Michael, finally sat me down and talked me through it. I said, "I'm just going to tell the judge the story and see how it all plays out."
The trouble with being a public figure like a pastor or President of the United States is that you have to be accountable to God AND all the people. From very early in Obama's presidency, it seemed like he couldn't do anything right. America has a long history. Rome wasn't built in a day. Our country didn't get to where it is overnight. Neither did our church.
This morning, I will be confessing. Please forgive me. I know God will.
