--The Bridge of Confession --

"I acknowledged my sin to You,
and my iniquity I did not hide;
I said, "I will confess my transgressions to the LORD";
and You forgave the guilt of my sin." Selah ~Psalm 32:5

~~~~Once there were a couple of farmers who couldn't get along with each other. A wide ravine separated their two farms, but as a sign of their mutual distaste for each other, each constructed a fence on his side of the chasm to keep the other out.

In time, however, the daughter of one met the son of the other, and the couple fell in love. Determined not to be kept apart by the folly of their fathers, they tore down the fence and used the wood to build a bridge across the ravine.

Confession does that. Confessed sin becomes the bridge over which we can walk back into the presence of God. ~
