On Being Laid Bare
Unraveling…
Unveiling…
Peeling Back…
Exposing…
Laying Bare…
it’s fine for a birch tree…
but oh, so hard to see in
those we love.
But there’s a season for exposure
of the hidden things which eat from the inside out.
May we be people who embrace and love well
(which may involve covering, or may involve more painful exposure)
when those in our care are in the painful process
of dealing with things they need to let go.
“And no creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account.”
Hebrews 4:13
“If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
I John 1:9
