When we were children, and our parent came to us to ask about what happened to the cat’s fur, I wonder if we all were like: What, I don’t know what you are talking about. What happened to the cat?
“3For I know my transgressions, and my sin is ever before me.” – Psalm 51:3 (ESV)
David knew he had sinned and was working through coming clean. He knew that God was aware of his sin. We knew we have/are doing wrong. Mom and Dad knew and they were looking for honesty, and we, like David had the opportunity to come clean.
We are human and will sin as it is in our nature, and you can see here that we know our sin. But, we have the opportunity to come clean with our Heavenly Father just as we have/had that opportunity with our earthly parents.
Sin is a part of your life, are you denying it? Do you know of your sin? Are you coming clean?
