Max Lucado Daily Devotional - Problem of Unresolved Guilt
Description
What kind of person does unresolved guilt create? An anxious one, forever hiding, running, denying, pretending. As one man admitted, “I was always living a lie for fear someone might see me for who I really was and think less of me. I hid behind my super spirituality but this lie was exhausting and anxiety producing.”
Unresolved guilt will turn you into a miserable, weary, angry, fretful mess. In a psalm David wrote after his affair with Bathsheba, the king said, “When I refused to confess my sin, my body wasted away, and I groaned all day long. Day and night your hand of discipline was heavy on me. My strength evaporated like water in the summer heat” (Psalm 32:3-4 NLT).
As Paul told Titus, God’s grace is the fertile soul out of which courage sprouts. “God’s readiness to give and forgive is now public. Salvation’s available for everyone!” (Titus 2:11 MSG).
