Nothing in all creation is hidden from God. Everything is naked and exposed before his eyes and he is the one to whom we are accountable. – Hebrews 4:13 (NLT)
NAKED AND EXPOSED
A poem and essay by ILMA
Do you think you can hide anything from your creator?
You can turn your back and delay repentance later
If you deny your sin, it will ricochet on your life
If you continue to be lawless, you will lose sight.
Nothing in all creation is hidden from God
Everything is naked and exposed to him above
You are accountable to your Lord and Savior
Repent! He overcomes sins, he is our liberator.

I had a very traumatic experience from a marriage support group that my husband and I ran for help. I was misunderstood for being bold to ask why communications amongst the couples were limited to some and not to all. My query was twisted by someone’s jealousy. Everything went askew and they gathered around me to point fingers at me and blame me for boldly asking and distorting it to a racial issue. It was out of line that they humiliated me publicly during my most vulnerable and stressful times. We came for help not to be exposed. The bible says that we are all naked and exposed before God. We are only accountable to him.
PRAYER
Lord, give me humility to admit my sins and repent.
REFLECTION
Who do you pledge loyalty to? Is it God or man?
