In journeying through this wilderness
what words will silence my enemy?
and bring peace
what words?
In returning and rest will be my salvation
In quietness and trust my strength (Isaiah 30:15)
Shame is not always what we have done but is also what has been done to us. Shame is that deep sense that we are unacceptable and disgraced.
We hide behind frivolity, busyness and intellectual pursuit yet it lingers...........
We are not talking about guilt but shame alone. That deep sense of secrecy that brings rage.
Only in embracing truth and putting our shame into words will we find a way out. What lie have we believed to keep us in hiding; to make us drop our heads and lower our gaze?
This is the lesson I have learnt.
"I may not see this offense made right in my eyes, in my days but I entrust myself to God, fighting through my doubts and hesitations."
It's time to move out of the fog.
