Yes, it is ... and here was a page out of my personal journal recently. Perhaps you might be able to identify ...
Almighty & All-Powerful “I AM”,
I don’t need to be convinced of my ‘dirtiness’ or my ‘ugliness’ - my sinful heart is so real to me - and so I cry out to You ...
~ I confess becoming too casual with sin.
~ I confess my distraction of being pre-occupied with myself.
~ I confess that my ears have been more ‘in tune’ with noise than with Your Voice.
~ I confess my lack of self-control, my binging, and my selfishness.
~ I confess too much concern with trying to win favor from others.
~ I confess my pride that causes me to argue or critique rather than question and explore.
I could never stand before You in my “Christieness.” No one could. But I come to You in the robe of righteousness from the blood of Jesus.... that covering - I will base my whole life upon! That purity is what gives me peace.
Your full redemption settles every sin in my life - it secures my present & my future. I am eternally indebted!
Please know that I am hungry to be close to You -
I am thirsty to do what is right.

What difference does confession make in your life? Please tell me.
