What's your weakness?

My devotion this morning was titled "Dealing with Your Weakness".  The apostle John tells us in 1 John 1:9-10 "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make Him out to be a liar and His word has no place in our lives".

What's your weakness? That's the question asked in the devotion. Mine is definitely worry. I constantly worry. I think it's somehow a family gene because I have some close relatives that are also great worriers. But it's interesting to really think about our sin and how we ask for forgiveness. Do we confess all of our sin, or is there a small percentage that we are really ashamed of and think people will think less of us? God knows all of our sin, we must remember this, and He wants us to confess and accept the forgiveness that He has already granted to us all through His Son on the cross.

If you think about it, if you look in the mirror and see this small percentage of what you think are horrible sins, don't you think that everyone is doing the same? We are because we are sinful by nature. It is only through His love that we are forgiven, and we must remember in our prayer routine to ask for this forgiveness that we've already been granted to show Him that we do believe in His grace.

I am hoping to have a new release of PrayerSteward out on the iPhone sometime this week (Apple willing). Yes, I've been secretly working on this based on suggestions from friends, family members and my pastor. Look for some preview screen shots coming shortly to the PrayerSteward website.

May God bless your weekend.
