I was with a group of people involved in ministry and they were talking about how much transparency is too much. After I speak I am usually questioned about why I would tell people the stuff of my struggles. Even the way I frame the question is telling.
I feel that the more transparent I am upfront the more real God becomes. Jesus says, " I am the way, the truth and the life". I believe that we get the Way, and the Life and somehow miss out on the Truth. Every time I rely on fiction I obscure Jesus. I muddy the Way and rob myself of really Living. My walk reveals my heart and my belief in His ability to work all things together for our good.
I feel that it is easier for me to make a show of my transparency by tearing at my veneer and still miss out on the opening my heart. Follow me as I attempt to open my heart to the truth of who I am and Who is making me.
