The Only Way to End Well Is to Live Well, Not Sinlessness

James 5:16 says, confess your sins to one another. What do we miss if we only confess our sins to god? R can healing, for pastors be found in confession and prayer. Confessing my sins to god alone is just too easy. I don't discover freeing power, i don't discover healing. This verse is not about just me losing face. It's about me getting healed. And so what i miss is felt forgiveness and healing. But the price i pay for that is the embarrassment losing face.
