Have you ever had a secret that you tried to hide from God, or at least, didn’t talk to God about? Did you end up sharing it with the Holy One? If so, what happened? If not, why not consider doing that?
Have you ever been bound by a secret? Did you finally share it with someone? If you did, what happened when you shared it? How did you feel? If you haven’t, do you need to share it with someone you can trust?
Who is it in your life that you could share your deepest, darkest secret with? If you don’t have such a person, would you consider praying to God to help you develop such a relationship with someone? Would you consider making that prayer right now?
Read the 10th chapter of the Gospel of John. What is Satan’s reason for being? What is Jesus’ reason for being?
Sometimes we allow someone else’s secrets to bind us up, especially those of family members. Loyalty to family members is important, but not when keeping those secrets binds us and keeps us from enjoying the life we’ve been promised by Jesus. What will it take for you to be truly free to enjoy the life Jesus has to offer? Are you ready to pray for God’s help with that?
