Nothing is more intrinsically naked than a baby’s soft, round bottom. Following thoughts of the 2013 One Word, Naked, I am unable to avoid the topic of abortion. And it is timely, as today, January 25, 2013 is the 40th Annual March for Life here in Washington D.C. So much deception and confusion buries the […]
I doubt I’m the only woman who finds the Proverbs 31 woman intimidating. Last year, I wrote a post about this, a paraphrase of that infamous chapter. However, when I read the chapter in light of my One Word for 2013, a tiny segment of verses stands out. Verses 25-27 seem to skip away from […]
This is a slightly more casual chat about nakedness than we have been having here lately. But, it struck me so bluntly Sunday morning that I just had to share. My girlfriend texted me: “My son is so funny. When he’s naked he kinda goes goofball silly on me!” (her son is almost 2) I replied: […]
I chose NAKED as my one word this year. It sounds kind of crass, I know. But I think God is getting at something with me. There are parts of me that I often try to hide, or color over. Things about me that I’d like to change. I look at others and wish I […]
I’m pretty glad we wear clothes, and not just because they cover up a lot of things I’d rather not see. However, if Adam and Eve were created naked, “and it was good,” why do we get dressed every day? Adam and Eve were created in God’s image. All of their nakedness was perfection to […]
She Loves Magazine addresses “Naked” I was back in the garden with Eve, naked and ashamed, only I was fully clothed and ashamed.
Hebrews 4:13 “Nothing in all creation is hidden from God. Everything is naked and exposed before his eyes, and he is the one to whom we are accountable.” God created male and female naked, their reflection of Him undisguised. In Christ, you are once again restored to righteousness and beauty. Jesus LOVES You!
There is at least one common picture in every family’s photo album. Or as many common pictures as children in the family. It is the inevitable bathroom picture. A pink, pudgy child, below the age of shame, plays in the tub, blissfully ignorant of Daddy’s camera. If not ignorant, simply unaffected by the potential shame […]
Welcome to 2013! I have been bumbling this morning, trying to encapsulate everything I want to share with you. A chronic problem of mine, (I’ve had it since college) is that I don’t know how to procrastinate or to manage time. My only mode is NOW! If I have an agenda of things to share, […]
I think Heaven should have a special appeal to all those who have struggled with body image. Not that Heaven isn’t just plain awesome, period. But, the way it’s described in Scripture, tugs my formerly eating disordered heart in a unique way. I’ve recently listened to Pastor Chip Ingram’s series on Heaven and I highly […]
