Why do we find it hard to confront others? Because we don’t want people to be disappointed in us. We want them to think well of us. Or let’s look at the opposite. Why do we love to confront others even we should not? It is because we need to prove that we are right. But why? Why this constant need to prove ourselves? Why is it that some of us are so concerned with our looks that even gaining a few kilograms makes us feel ugly? Here is why. Because deep inside of us, we know there is something wrong with us. There is a sense of condemnation that we can’t shake. We have a dirty conscience. We have an internal sense that we have fallen short of God’s standard, and it resulted in a condemning conscience. Our conscience condemns us and makes us feel unacceptable before God. It tells us that we are not worthy. It drives us away from God rather than closer to God. And what we need is a clean conscience to draw near to God.
