Learning to Be VulnerableНамуна

VULNERABILITY

Being vulnerable means being susceptible, exposed. It's painful to show our wounds, uncomfortable to reveal things we're ashamed of, difficult to admit our mistakes, and even harder to expose our weaknesses. Of course, we shouldn't be vulnerable with everyone; that wouldn't be wise.

Don't give your heart to just anyone. We need discernment to know whom we can trust, to choose wisely, and to seek God's guidance in our relationships. But I'm not here to talk about our relationships with others; I'm here to talk about our relationship with God. With God, we don't need any defense mechanisms; we can be completely susceptible and exposed before Him.

Jesus was vulnerable when He came to earth; He became human, became limited, and exposed Himself on the cross. Jesus didn't hold back; He died for us. Jesus was vulnerable out of love for us. He gave Himself entirely. When we look at the cross, we need to understand that just as He gave Himself for us, we also need to surrender ourselves to Him. With God, we can't hold back; we have no reason to put up defenses.

It's time to let the light expose us and dispel all our darkness. Don't let the shame of imperfection stop you from experiencing God's newness in your life. Take your deepest secrets, unearth your pain, unwrap your flaws, and meet with the One who truly knows you. Together, let's do what Jairus and the woman with the issue of blood did: completely surrender before Jesus Christ.
