This will keep us from their mistake who confess little sins much, and altogether neglect greater ; who confess those sins which they seldom commit, and neglect those into which they fall continually and frequently. Confession is the way to peace and happiness. Never can we have true peace of mind till we have fully and frankly confessed all our sinfulness to God. Psalm 32 : 5. And having a mighty Redeemer, who has borne the chastisement for us, and repaired all our wrongs, we may come with the... utmost freedom and confidence to God our Father, and tell him openly all our sinfulness, without attempt- ing to palliate or excuse it, but rather finding out and confessing all their aggravations. * A pious person found a great advantage in keeping a list of those sins to which he had found himself specially tempted, and praying daily and particularly for strength to mortify them. ON PRIVATE PRAYER. 89 II. — PETITION. From confessing our sins, we may easily and natu- rally pass to the earnest request of those blessings which sinners want ; and this, either by a profession of shame and sorrow for so many sins, or of purpose to renounce our own righteousness; or a desire of grace for greater strictness in future; or a brief ap- plication to ourselves of the many promises of mercy to those that repent and believe.
