That is one tricky word that I have been dealing with these few weeks. The people whom I met either have too much of it or too little.... It's a line of red or black...
Too much of it can make people run... make ppl wanna be somebody else just so to hide...I see how it makes people feel... uncomfortable.
Honesty.... it's an action to be paired with love. understanding. exchanging your shoes with mine. using my heart. critic aside. ears and arms open.
Many times, ppl already know the answer... the right way... the solution... and all they need is a honest feeling transaction... a deposit of their broken ---- to be heard... before time & journey follow... to the right place...
Thank you Lord for being quiet so so many times when I go on a crazy monstrous vent...kinda like Job & David... Thank you for your love....that endures... forever... I pray there will be more open ears & hearts... not the draining, tiring, nagging Job's friends type...
That is the beginning of unity - honesty. The beginning of trust. The beginning of a net. Knowing that when I am real, you won't judge me or preach from the alter at me, knowing that I am safe... to be me.
Regardless, I'm gonna be honest on my failings. Because fellowship needs it. I wish everyone (no matter what position) could admit their mistakes and be real. Be as real as Jesus cursing the fig tree when he was hungry.
Facade... we are not of the one who hides, pretend, lie or intend to deceive. We belong to the One who seeks, became, freeing through truth & testimony, intending to build us for everlasting...
Why do we often hide... I pray more preachers & pastors will be gifted with the skill to know when to deliver the baby... the message... rather than throwing it. That kills. More heart, more ears, less talk.
What happens when one gets awed. We stop. Stop talking. Stop. everything. And just - Awed. I feel that sometimes the best way is to let the experience flow... God never fails, never shortchange... we need nets for free falling. Not nags when one decides to free fall & share...
Written awhile back before I went into full work-mode... never got to finish it since I was too tired... Thank you Lord for everything~~ More writings soon~

Me.
~I am well kept by Him in the secret place...
~Everyday amongst or beyond, I look up...smiles...He is there.
~He carries me... even before I came to be, He carried me...played with me...spoke to me and cuddled me... whispered sacred treasures into my heart...
~"I love you and I know how you'll be...I see you and I'll keep the heart of my eyes with you. I love you and I'll be with you..." "Your name is."
~I don't shine among a crowd of strangers...but have ears and heart for the thoughts of one
~I like to shine in the world for you...but I want to hide away from it as well...
~The sum of me is lesser than the equation of this world.... But it's more than the life of Your heart...
~You marvel me Lord...your deep love marvels me.
~I love you God, Lord Jesus & Holy Spirit.
~I love you.
I appreciate this love
This world is my playground with you
Of dreams of hope and a journey
Arising and moving
To be in love with you day after day
