Can You Keep a Secret?
Psalm 44:21
“Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.”
I remember when I was a little girl, oftentimes my friends and I would share “secrets”. Almost always, before the secret was told, the person would ask, “Can you keep a secret?” We would tell the person we would keep their secret, however, sometimes we would not do it. We would share that secret with someone else and proceed it by saying, “I’m not supposed to tell anyone…but…” I know you all have been in the position of the teller or hearer at one time or another. I believe we like thinking that we “know” something about someone that no one else does! But that’s not true, is it? Why? Because God knows all our secrets; whether we have spoken them or not.
