Shine a Light...on your issues

My passion is for every person to embrace the privilege of freedom that God offers to everyone. No one has to stay stuck in life or settle for just getting by. God has a good plan for you (Jer 29:11). Many don't ask for help for fear of appearing weak; asking for help is a sign of strength. We are to shine the light on darkness (Matt 5:15). Bringing issues into the light gives us & our loved ones an opportunity to heal, restore, & build authentic relationships as God intended for us to experience. The lie many believe is, if my weakness is exposed, others will lose respect for me. If you have a weakness, then you are human like the rest of us. To bring a weakness into the light is the beginning of it's death. It is draining to present only what we think the world will accept. Until we know who we are in Christ we will remain in some sort of bondage; trust He will give you strength (Phil 4:13). If you need to bring some things in the light; don't wait any longer, talk to someone. 5/12CIFL-LMM
