O Lord, You have searched me and known me. Psalm 139:1
We fear rejection perhaps more than anything.
We hide our true selves because of it, believing, "If I am known- fully, intimately- then rejection will follow."
We cover our mistakes.
We lie about our past.
We avoid deep connections.
We can't take the risk.
But God, AFTER He examines the deepest, darkest corners of our hearts and minds… Loves us.
Fully. Intimately. Eternally.
