James 5:16 tells us to “confess our sins one to another…” I’m sure you’re asking who is the “another?” It’s like you just read my mind! What a great question! If the “one” is you, then who are you going to confess to “another?” James 5:16 in the Message translation says, “make this your common practice: Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you can live together whole and healed.” Here we go! I’ve heard people say to me that their life is pretty good except when people get involved. That “another” is other people. We are all members of the Body of Christ. We are to live together “whole and healed.” We are tied together. We are family! We sin against each other, and we confess our sins to each other. All I can says is that we better get good at confession! That is why it is so important to PRACTICE these Spiritual Disciplines daily.
