thoughts!

Sometimes it is hard to express what is inside you. Yesterday at youth service the speaker asked us to rate our live at that point. We had to talk to our neighbours about it. Afterwards the speaker went on to say what we said to our neighbours is different then what we tell ourselves. It is so very true!!!
Like an iceberg, many people only see the top of it (in fact almost everyone). But there is a huge mass dwelling beneath the surface, which no one can see. The time they might see it, will be to late.
Everyday we re-hide our true selves, and only let people see what we have created ourselves to be. Maybe every so often people catch a glimpse of what you hide.
Isn’t how those whom see your true side, influence what you show or not show others?
I think that God wants us to start revealing ourselves. Not meaning, telling everyone everything, because that could be as bad as not revealing anything as well. But enough to show others we are real and feel the same as they do.
That is how Jesus connected to us. He went through these hard times as we do. He felt things as we have felt. We know this because he told us so. It is easier to tell someone something if you know they have felt or been through the same thing.
This is much easier said then done! Defiantly for myself, I am preaching to the choir here. But I want to make myself more available for people to have the opportunity to show God’s love.
And that is what it is all about, Loving God and Loving Others With the Love God Puts in Our Hearts!!!
