Showing Weakness
When’s the last time you showed some weakness? Seriously.
And not just the “I stink at making scrambled eggs…” type comments, but the type that really matter? That really cost you something?
I’ve been doing a lot of “it” lately, letting down my guard, and showing how honestly messed up I really am. It hurts, it cuts to the quick, and the wounds don’t heal quickly.
I’d like to think that it’s “helping” though. I think it is. I know it is.
When’s the last time you really showed others what you’re really made of?
really made of n00dles!
… yes.
Sounds a bit like marriage and family. Transparency is tough. My wife sees the good and all the bad sides of me.She and God are the two people that I cannot hide from. That can be uncomfortable when you know that the other person reads you. I feel like I get into "uncharted waters." Stuff that my folks never talked about with the bills,kids,relationships, etc. This is where I've learned to pray like a madman and stick my nose in the Scripture and dig deep. God has His way of honing me into his image.
word up jim. word up! tomorrow, first day on the job!
Sorry, I'm trying to find Struggling: A Web Guy in a Big Church. I just read it in my Reader and wanted to offer a hearty AMEN. But maybe there was a reason it was removed? If so then just delete my comment
Seems I need to get here more often anyway. Looks like there's more than what my GReader finds?
thanks for stopping by. the lord is good…
