Are you transparent?
Guess what it requires?
It requires that we swallow our pride and admit that we fail, just like everyone else. Oh so true! We prefer to let people see the façade of perfection. It’s so much easier to just keep quiet and let people think that we are good little human beings. Transparency is very hard. Personally, I have become more transparent not only with myself and my struggles, but with people and most importantly with God. None of us are perfect, and I think we all know that to some degree. If we look at those around us, it may seem as if they are perfect and we are not. Believe you me, that is far from the truth! Still, it is hard to admit our sin, when it feels like we are the only ones who struggle. God commands us to be transparent, “For we all stumble in many ways,” James 3:2.
Psalm 16:11

Being transparent is scary. I often feel that I'm transparent without even meaning to be! I so want to rest in His arms and Love...my "nakedness" or transparency don't feel so scary then!
Lisa dear, thank you for your comment. I know where you are coming from and I always appreciate your insight. Blessings dear one.
I agree with Lisa, it has unfortunately in our communities been pretty scary. I hope that Christians and people in general will create a safe community where being transparent is safe...
Selah, thank you for stopping by and sharing your thoughts!
