Called to the Carpet!!

I had a wonderful day today. As I sat at my desk I had to smile because I was thinking of my girls and then my thoughts switched to how I "call them to the carpet" when they've done something wrong or when they have an attitude that is not right. Sometimes they will deny that the problem is there when I know better!! I realize they just don't want to face the truth or accept their wrong so they try to hide it! So, my favorite thing to say to them is "It is never good to lie at all but it's even worse to lie to yourself!!" Then I will follow up with the quote (I don't know who said this...) "TO THINE OWN SELF BE TRUE!" Anyway, I said all of that to say this.....Isn't that how God does us??? We know when we're wrong! When our attitudes stink and we've wronged someone! And even if we don't and the Holy Spirit "calls us to the carpet" about it ...there is no need to hide it or pretend it's not there! "TO THINE OWN SELF BE TRUE!" God knows and He just wants us to see our sin like He sees it so we can repent and move on.....

Be Blessed!
