Now that I’ve read your thoughtful post, I’m imagining a tsunami AFTERWARDS–when it has washed everything away and we’re clean and ready to start over with God in control. A different slant on your post, Chris; but see–ya got me thinkin’!

me too Loren, it is scary to be vulnerable but amazing how accepting real people are when we are open, honest and sincere. Thank you for sharing your comments today!!

I’ve been intentionally vulnerable in front of people now, which is awkward (realllllly awkward). But it has produced fruit. It’s really led to growth in some of my relationships, and people have actually commented on how startling and refreshing that was.
