Secrets

What are your secrets? Do you have any? We all have them... some are big, and others are minor, but we all have them. Rebekah Lyons has an article on secrets that will make you think. She makes the case that secrets actually hold you hostage. She asks the question, "Do we really believe the truth will set us free?" She claims that we do not.

We often become slaves to our secrets, and act in ways unimaginable just to continue or extend life to these secrets. It is one of our enemy's strongest and most effective weapons; she writes, "The thing is, Satan DWELLS in the secret, in the haunting, hidden brokenness. The longer we keep that secret, the more power he has to speak lies into our own identity. We have a crisis of faith; we don't truly believe that God will hear and lavish us with his love upon our confession. We don't REALLY believe that we will be made new. So we keep it and hide it and cover it and die from it."

I think there are many of us who call Christ Lord and Savior and, yet, still do not believe that the truth is the right answer. Does being truthful really matter? She goes on to answer this question and more in this thought provoking article on secrets.
