One of the blogs that I read regularly pointed me to this relatively new site called mysecret.tv. The idea is that people come to the site and anonymously share some sin in their life (a lot like postsecret). The page reads:
Why you are here
It’s been eating at you.
It keeps you up at night.
It’s too big to keep in.
Too big to tell.
It’s just time to get it out.
And get on with it.
What’s your “it”?
Of course posting our secrets on a webpage isn’t going to save us from anything…but their (as well as my own) hope and prayer is that sins will not only be confessed to others anonymously, but that the sin will be confessed to God.
It’s an interesting idea.
The thing that really struck me, was that after reading just a handful of them I started to get a picture of just how much sin hurts us…how much the devil tempts us all. So many people have thrown their lives away because of some addiction, so many marriages are falling apart because of distrust, so many are struggling because they just don’t feel loved anymore. There’s just so much hurt in this world… and seeing this site, makes me realize that not only are those people out there hurting, but also that they need someone to share that pain with or otherwise they wouldn’t be saying anything at all.
So…I guess my prayer is that those people who are hurting would find a place where they are loved…where they can share their struggles and pain…where they will be forgiven.
So let it be.
