Ecclesiastes 7:20 (NLT)

1 Oh, what joy for those whose disobedience is forgiven, whose

sin is put out of sight! 2 Yes, what joy for those whose record

tthe LORD has cleared of guilt, whose lives are lived in complete honesty! 3 When I refused to confess my sin, my body wasted away, and I

groaned all day long. 4 Day and night your hand of discipline was heavy on me. My strength

evaporated like water in the summer heat.

5 Finally, I confessed all my sins to you and stopped trying to

hide my guilt. I said to myself, “I will confess my rebellion to the

LORD.” And you forgave me! All my guilt is gone. Psalm 32:1-5 (NLT)
