Conviction and Confession

If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins... 1 John 1:9

Last week I failed to follow rules #19 and #20. A new employee at work had to have a form filled out and when he asked me to do it I told him he could feel out the top part (the name and stuff) and then he asked me about his pay type and stuff. He also said something about the form saying it should be filled out by the supervisor. His tone rubbed me the wrong way and even though I answered his questions I was not overly kind (at least internally I knew it wasn't the right tone). I made some excuses to myself to justify my attitude and went on with my day.

Later in the day I was rereading the rules I posted and when I got down to the bottom I realized that I had failed (you can say I say I failed to follow the first three rules, too). I was convicted of my sin and I confessed it to God, asking for forgiveness.
