adopt-a-child 2013: compassion
i wish i could have more time to speak. there are many, many things
that i have to say left. like how the motivation for being open and
honest and transparent and for confessing our sins to one another
is love. how when we are willing to break down our walls of pride
and trust our brothers and sisters to be there for us, it blesses both
those that listen and those who speak. we ought to be a community
of grace and be willing to walk through all the difficult parts of life
with each other. for there is therefore now no condemnation for those
that are in Christ Jesus. if you think that confessing your sins, that
you have bitterness, that you struggle with sexual sin, or self-harm,
that you've lied to someone, that you've cheated on a test, that you
idolize media, or any other sin- if you think that being open about it
will cause your brothers and sisters to condemn you, you are wrong!
you are a child of God, you are purchased by His precious blood, you
are forgiven, you are His! and you are now free to love Him and
those around you. what could possibly hold you back?
