Above is a picture of one of my walls. On it is a framed print with one of my favorite sayings. The saying actually inspires me to strive to Live, Laugh, and Love. Sadly, many days I don't live, laugh, or love. Instead I choose to hide behind one or more of my walls. My walls were erected for protection--to protect from hurts (both real and perceived), disappointments, and rejections. I recently realized that my walls may be hurting me more than the things they were supposed to protect me from and they need to come down.This is a process which has not reached completion. However, just when I think I can stand without the wall some new hurt, disappointment, and/or rejection emerges. So what's a girl to do? She is to trust that she is to live without walls and that life is to be lived--with laughter and love, lots of both. She is to believe that when those culprits come around, she can trust in Christ and his holy spirit to bring her through it as He always has.
Do you have any walls which need to come tumbling down?
