Shame is possibly the greatest bondage man can ever live in. It is deceptive and it negates your true identity.It sits on you as passivity stopping you allowing yourself to love yourself. Why?.... because it makes you feel ashamed of your issues. We all have them; our flesh contains them and for many understandable reasons; shame wants to put you in denial..there is the bondage..

One of the things that I enjoy about travelling is that I get to meet some interesting people. This week in Philadelphia has been no exception. I am facilitating a global training programme for a really interesting group of senior executives. Yesterday I had dinner with a Chief Financial Officer from Canada named Mark, who as it turned out is a Christian. We had a great discussion during which he told me a story about Tolkien & CS Lewis. Mark told me that Tolkien once asked Lewis
What is that differentiates Christianity from all other faith systems?
Without pausing for thought CS Lewis replied
Grace!
I thought about CS Lewis
answer, grace is indeed the
X-Factor
it is the sine qua non of Christianity. Be first to comment this article | Add as favourites (66) | Quote this article on your site | Views: 2456 |

One can easily understand a child who is afraid of the dark. The real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light." ~ Plato Walking in Grace is a scary activity; i'm walking in His hand and not my own control; i'm walking in surrender to His care and NOT my own false responsibilites and expectations over myself.... It has endless possibilties, possibilties which I would never have dreamed of; it makes my life an open book. I want this. This is my desire; not so much the union and intimacy that I could experience in HIm but rather the intimacy that He could experience in me How much does He know me? there is a thought?

Few things have left me feeling more frustrated than a recent visit to a well respected evangelical church. [No names no packdrill]. The joy of anonymity afforded me a nauseating vantage point from which to participate in the meeting. It was the Pastor talk that irked me so. For thirty-four incredulous minutes I listened to him wax satirically from a book dubiously self-explanatory title
No I am not joking! It was like one of those
