Admit When You Are Wrong

It always feels good to be right, and we all wish we could be right all the time, but there are going to be many times in life that we will be wrong. Most of us find a great deal of shame and embarrassment when we find ourselves in the wrong and we will do anything to try to hide it.

Honestly the best thing you can ever learn to do is to admit when you have done wrong. When you try to cover things up or hide them you are actually doing more wrong than just what you did in the first place. It is human nature to not want to admit error, but we are all with fault and there is nothing we can do to change it.

Pride is what is getting in the way. The best thing you can do for yourself is to man up (or woman up) and admit that you have done wrong. You are not only lying to other people, but you are lying to yourself if you don't believe so. The Bible says we are all sinners and that we will all make mistakes, and we should openly admit our faults to God.

You don't have to tell the world the wrong you have done, but God knows what you have done and if you won't admit it to him you are foolish. Be honest with yourself and the Lord when you make mistakes and ask  for guidance in the right direction. If you can't admit you make mistakes, you can't confess your sins, and then you will never have a true walk with God.

Admit you are not perfect and you will be happier and closer to God and the world around you.
