For the last couple of weeks, I noticed that my money started acting "funny". Freelance projects were few and far between, the condition of my car started deteriorating, and my pocketbook was being hit hard. I was wondering what kind of "test" was God giving me. However, I woke up this morning and during prayer discovered that these sudden financial woes were not a "test of my faith", but a result of secret sin.
I had been committing secret sin in the area of my thought life and emotions. I thought that since I am not physically hurting anyone that my sin was somehow overlooked and not that serious. I even thought that "God knew my heart" and used that as an excuse to keep sinning.
However, what starts in your mind will one day manifest in your actions. And I am so glad that He chastised me so I can see my faults and correct them.
