This isn't easy to do. I've confessed my sin to God and asked for his forgiveness, but never have I told anyone. No one here knows me or can identify me, but putting this in the public eye brings my guilt rushing to the surface. Though I so much desire forgiveness, I don't feel worthy of the cleansing....

Revised:I was continually remined of what a disappointment and bad person I was from a very young age. It wasn't a big leap to start stealing for things I thought I wanted or needed.
