What I find funny about "confessing sins" is that sometimes we usually don't really confess the real sin.
Example:..I go to the store and steal food .
The "sin" of stealing the food is just the "fruit" of my real sin....which is....I do not trust in my loving heavenly Father to provide for me as He said He would. This is the real sin behind stealing.
This is real "missing the mark" which what the Greek word for sin actually means.
...just thinkin' out loud here...
