Open the Door
Do not merely listen to the word, and
so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.
Anyone who listens to the word but does
not do what it says is like someone who
looks at his face in a mirror and, after
looking at himself, goes away and immediately
forgets what he looks like. But whoever looks
intently into the perfect law that
gives freedom, and continues in it—
not forgetting what they have heard,
but doing it
—they will be blessed in what they do.
James 1:22-25 (NIV)
Do not hold onto your shame. It is not you.
Your past does not define your future, nor
even you now. Come to me.
Allow my forgiveness to blanket you. Be
wrapped in my love.
Open the door in front of you and walk
forward with me. I will direct your steps.
I will provide for you what will be needed.
You are mine.
