JESUS had THEM too.
HE didn't hide THEM away.
HE wore THEM for all to see
even though HE was JESUS.
"JESUS wept" (John 11:35).
HE let THEM all out~
"And being in anguish, HE prayed more earnestly,
and HIS sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground" (Luke 22:44).
If JESUS had FEELINGS
& HE is our SAVIOR
wouldn't you
&
shouldn't you
also want to
LIVE UNMASKED
to the
ONE
who
can totally relate to every part of you~
"For we do not have a High Priest who is unable to sympathize and understand our weaknesses and temptations, but One who has been tempted [knowing exactly how it feels to be human] in every respect as we are, yet without [committing any] sin" (Hebrews 4::14).
Oh REAL MEN CRY
because who is more manly than
A KING.
If HE had THEM
why should you & I & everyone else
pretend that THEY aren't there.
How are you?
Are you JUST FINE?
Is there something that you really aren't FEELING quite FINE about,
yet you are FAKING FINE,
because
if anyone knew how you really were,
then they would really see the REAL you
and what would they think of you?
Hmm.
"JESUS WEPT" (Luke 22:44).
Oh how humbling.
Oh how freeing to not hide behind a MASK
by letting out all your FEELINGS
to the ONE
who really gets you & I & everyone else.
It takes a man & woman of courage to
be REALLY REAL~
"Therefore let us [with privilege] approach the throne of grace [that is, the throne of GOD'S gracious favor] with confidence and without fear, so that we may receive mercy [for our failures] and find [HIS amazing] grace to help in time of need
[an appropriate blessing, coming just at the right moment] (Hebrews 4:16).
It takes less energy to
LIVE UNMASKED~BEING REAL WITH JESUS
then it does to MASK what you really are FEELING.
What is behind your MASK?
FIRST THINGS FIRST~
come
FACE TO FACE
to the ONE
who knows you way better than you know yourself
and LOVES every part of you
no matter what you may be FEELING or not FEELING,
because
"TRUTH BE TOLD" (listen to the song below),
FAKING FINE
is no longer an option
IN CHRIST!
