Removing Obstacles to Healing & Hope

Jesus cannot come and do his work in me as long as there is anything blocking the way, am I prepared for him to drag every wrong thing I have ever done into the light? That is exactly where he comes. Wherever I know I am unclean is where he will put his feet and stand, and wherever I think I am clean is where he will remove his feet and walk away. Repentance does not cause a sense of sin—it causes a sense of inexpressible unworthiness. When I repent, I realize that I'm absolutely helpless.
