Teaching Setting down the heavy sack of stones

You never have to hide your mistakes from God - when you tell Him you're sorry, He forgives you and your heart feels light again.

David said hiding a wrong thing felt heavy, like a backpack full of rocks. Have you ever felt yucky inside after doing something you knew was wrong?
When David told God the truth and said sorry, the heavy feeling went away. Why do you think telling the truth helps us feel better?
God is called a "hiding place" that keeps us safe. Who is someone you can always tell the truth to, even when you make a mistake?
