Yesterday morning I was sitting on my Florida apartment balcony, enjoying a fresh Starbucks coffee, before heading home to Tennessee.
Looking at the sky - I paused.
A layer of dark clouds had settled over me. Yet, I was able to see glimpses of blue above the dark clouds, barely peeking through.
It reminded me of how the monster of toxic and chronic shame has consumed my life.
Darkness covering me.
Living under the umbrella of darkness.
Going through each day with the constant and unrelenting threat of impending storms to ravage my soul.
Knowing the glory of God was shining bright beyond the shame.
Seeing small glimpses.
but unable to press past the shadows of clouds and darkness.
___
Now, the shame is replaced with Love
Shame is faded into God's glorious light.
Hiding - no more.
Going though the motions just to survive replaced with the glory of God and His plan to thrive.
Letting go!
Believing Him!
Trusting Him!
In faith.
___
You holding me in Your arms.
Loved just as I am.
No striving for approval or acceptance.
Covered in the love of Christ.
Healed - Whole - New!
