It is simply entering into a relationship in which we listen to and ponder our emotions that are stirred up by life’s problems and relationships so that we can explore what our hearts believe about our relationship with God. Why would we do that? Because God receives angry, fearful, deceitful, manipulative sinners who are willing to drop their masks of pretense and own, in repentance, what they are before Him.
