"I always do my best to have a clear conscience before God and men." - Paul
What does it mean to have a clear conscience? It means that no one can say, "You sinned against me and never did anything to make it right." We all struggle with sin. The question is, when we sin against someone, do we ask for their forgiveness? Are we quick to admit wrong and seek forgiveness?
Parents, do we admit to our kids when we blow it? Do we ask our children to forgive us? With our spouses are we able to admit our sin and confess our wrong doing? With friends and family members are we able to talk openly about problems our sin has caused and seek reconciliation?
Having a clear conscience is a lot of work! It is worth it though. Being a faithful christian doesn't mean that we never sin. It does mean that when we sin, we do the work to make it right.
