It confirms James 5:16:<BR/><BR/>Confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed.<BR/><BR/>As you said, we don't need a catholic priest or a pastor for this purpose. We just need a trusted Christian "one another" and God will provide the healing.<BR/><BR/>I also think of satan, accusing us before God's throne night and day. When we have confessed a sin, God has removed it from us and no longer remembers it. It is only un-confessed sin, that we haven't yet found the courage to entrust to God, that has any power over us.<BR/><BR/>And testifying to this, as you have done in this post, makes us an overcomer. Hallelujah!<BR/><BR/>Rev. 12:10-11: Then I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, "Now the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God and the authority of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren has been thrown down, he who accuses them before our God day and night. And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, and they did not love their life even when faced with death."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6236017686155029780.post-470139393666161612009-02-18T09:48:00.000-06:002009-02-18T09:48:00.000-06:00Great post!!!

I'm not a Catholic, but have been thinking lately of how Protestants would surely benefit if we had some sort of confession. The more I read about the actual mechanics of the system - the better it sounds.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6236017686155029780.post-39603198499757519782009-02-17T18:49:00.000-06:002009-02-17T18:49:00.000-06:00Hey girl!

I can't stand him. <BR/><BR/>And I agree -- it is great to share our experiences when it helps lead others out of the mud. Our testimonies hold great power.<BR/><BR/>Bless you for being a Light for the Lord!<BR/><BR/>Love,<BR/>BethBeth in NChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17492590083823556624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6236017686155029780.post-24488756603373776182009-02-17T17:16:00.000-06:002009-02-17T17:16:00.000-06:00Hi Sherri,Another great post...excellent writing, ...Hi Sherri,<BR/>Another great post...excellent writing, straight from the heart!<BR/>So much healing takes place (for us and others) when we are real with one another, especially when we feel vulnerable(we definitely need discernment in choosing who to share what with, but yes it is awesome when the person you are confiding in is walking closely with God). <BR/><BR/> I especially like the last 2 paragraphs...there is no condemnation in Christ Jesus! "If someone hears my past and feels uncomfortable or begins to judge, that is not mine to take on." Love that! Yes, it is between them and God.

When we expose him and his lies, and throw off guilt, shame and condemnation we find the freedom that Christ intends for us to have. And if we allow Him to, He can use our pain to comfort and help others. Thank You Jesus, for Your Light! And thank you Sherri, for opening up and sharing this. <BR/><BR/>BTW, I loved the youtube video you had at the bottom of your blog and I added it to the bottom of mine as well. Hope you don't mind!
