If A Man Is Ever

It Takes Great Courage To Be Vulnerable. It Takes Enormous Strength To Be A Real Woman.

Mary Had Joseph. Esther Had Mordecai. Ruth Had Boaz. We Will Not Become The Women God Intends Us To Be Without The Guidance, Counsel, Wisdom, Strength, And Love Of Good Men In Our Lives.

If Only Jesus' Followers Shared His Personality. That One Shift Alone Would Correct So Many Of The Ridiculous And Horrifying Things That Pass For Popular Christianity.

Somehow We Have Overlooked The Fact This Treasured Called The Heart Can Also Be Broken, Has Been Broken, And Now Lies In Pieces Down Under The Surface. When It Comes To Habits We Cannot Quit Or Patterns We Cannot Stop, Anger That Flies Out Of Nowhere, Fears We Cannot Overcome, Or Weaknesses We Hate To Admit--much Of What Troubles Us Comes Out Of The Broken Places In Our Hearts Crying Out For Relief. Jesus Speaks As If We Are All Brokenhearted. We Would Do Well To Trust His Perspective On This.

But A Wound Unfelt Is A Wound Unhealed.
