Psalm 34: 4-5
I sought the Lord, and he answered me;
he delivered me from all my fears.
Those who look to him are radiant;
their faces are never covered with shame.
Shame implies feeling bad about who you are, and is really different than simply feeling guilty. But there is no room whatsoever in a believer’s life for shame. God created me just the way that I am, and knows all of my shortcomings. He knows when I try to be better, and when I succeed or fail. When I think about it, allowing myself to feel shame implyies that God made a mistake in me. That just isn’t possible. He creates what He intends to create.
Holy Lord, I thank you for this lesson today- what a beautiful way to start the day. I am not ashamed, I am your creation. Amen
