责任心
“所以你们要彼此认罪，互相代求，使你们可以得医治。义人祈祷所发的力量是大有功效的。”
雅各书5:16
当你的生活乱了套，只要承认。不要让情况更加糟糕。把自己从罪的捆绑中解脱出来。让你的内心释放。把自己的问题跟值得信赖的人分享，让他帮助你迈向下一步，获得自由。如果你经常陷入这样的困境，就更需要这样做。
找一个关心你的朋友，一个会跟进你，鼓励你，并扶持你的朋友，一个能为你代祷，帮助你疗伤和改变生命的朋友。
其目的不是要找一个你每次有过犯就来困扰你的人。你不需要更多的负罪感了。你不需要更多的压力。你已经承受了很多。你需要的是释放。最终的目标，就是要信靠耶稣，得完全的生命。你需要的是对上帝的信实，而不是责任感。但责任感会帮助你达到目标。
今日祷告：
主耶稣，求你赦免我的罪。让我可以信任他人，并得到他的扶持和帮助，以坚固我的信心。阿们。
June 16 – Accountability
Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results.
JAMES 5:16
When you mess up, simply admit it. Don’t let the mess fester. Free yourself from the self-imposed shackles of your sin. Let if off your heart. Share it with someone you can trust and who will help you take the next steps toward freedom. This is especially true if you have a recurring mess that you keep stepping into.
It would be good to find someone to hold you accountable—a friend who will follow up with you and encourage you and watch where you step, a friend who will pray for your healing and change. The goal isn’t to find someone who will haunt you every time you sin. You don’t need more guilt heaped on you. You don’t need more oppression. You’ve already given yourself enough constriction as it is. What you need is freedom.
The goal, ultimately, is to walk toward faithfulness with Jesus. Fidelity, not accountability, is what you truly need. But accountability might just help get you there.
Pray for the Day:
Lord Jesus, forgive me for my sin. Let me trust my steps to another person so that I can find the support I need to be faithful to you. Amen.
