Is it Okay to Be Honest with God?

Do you ever wonder how honest you can be with God in prayer?

On the surface, this question probably seems silly. After all, God knows everything. How could we hide anything from the God who knows our hearts and can read our minds?

Yet sometimes, we hold back in prayer. As if our thoughts, emotions, or words don’t really exist if we don’t speak them. Or perhaps that we won’t be held accountable for them if we don’t admit our thoughts.

David, the shepherd-king, can help us answer the question, “How honest can I be with God in prayer?” Let’s take a walk through the Psalms to eavesdrop on some of his prayers.

This month, I’m guest posting on the Revive Our Hearts blog. To read the rest of the post, including what the Bible says about expressing fear, anger, confusion, and frustration to God in prayer, CLICK HERE to read, “How Honest Can I Be with God in Prayer?”
