5-20

When your sins weigh heavily upon you, come to me. Confess your wrongdoing, which I know all about before you say a word. Stay in the light of my presence, receiving forgiveness, cleansing, and healing. Remember that I have clothed you in my righteousness, so nothing can separate you from me. Whenever you stumble or fall, I am there to help you up.

Man’s tendency is to hide from his sin, seeking refuge in the darkness. There he indulges in self-pity, denial, self-righteousness, blaming, and hatred. But I am the light of the world, and my illumination decimates the darkness. Come close to me and let light envelop you, driving out darkness and permeating you with peace.

當你的罪惡沉重地壓在你身上時，請來找我。懺悔你的過錯，在你開口之前，我已經全知道。停留在我同在的光中，接受寬恕、潔淨和醫治。要記住，我已經用我的公義為衣給你穿上，因此沒有什麽能將你與我分開。每當你趔趄或跌倒時，我都在那裏要幫助你站起來。

人的傾向是隱藏自己的罪惡，尋求黑暗的庇護。在那裏，他縱情於自憐、否認、自義、指責和仇恨。但我是世界的光，我的光明消滅黑暗。靠近我，讓光籠罩你，驅散黑暗，讓平安充滿你。
