Today's post on SCL was so well-done, I had to share it. Again, ProdigalJon hits on how we tend to accumulate insecurities and how difficult learning who we really are vs. who the world and our defeatest selves say we are can be.
It's a weird paradox: we know that we all fail at some point (and God knows that more than anyone), we all find it stupidly necessary to, at times, point that out to each other (which causes immense regrettable damage, for which we later beat ourselves up because we've failed, yet again)...but God is the one person who calls us by a new name and not by all that stuff. He's the one person who should rightfully be calling out our faults, and yet He stays His hand and calls us son & daughter. Read this, if you would. ProdigalJon does a much more eloquent job than I could.
