People who conceal their sins will not prosper, but if they confess and turn from them, they will receive mercy. (NLT) -Proverbs 28:13
Living with a guilty conscience certainly does not lead to peace. Actively hiding the truth through lying and manipulating does not lead to long term prosperity. However, revealing the truth and changing habits or lifestyle brings peace. This verse also says confession and repentance brings mercy. If your heart longs to receive peace or mercy, the first step is to open up about what you are doing. Then make a proactive change in your life to stop sinning. In time, you will receive mercy.

When you produce much fruit, you are my true disciples. This brings great glory to my Father. (NLT) -John 15:8
The majority of our days can be spent working and laboring trying to produce fruitfulness. Is your profession one that goest against your faith? Does it continuously put you in a position that forces you to choose against what you believe is right? This is a difficult situation. Perhaps it's time to make a change and take a stand, have a difficult conversation, or possibly change jobs. God will honor you and provide exactly what you need when you need it. He will be faithful to those who honor Him. Who knows what kind of impact you will have on policies, fellow co-workers, or your position.
