We do funny things when we allow our shame to overwhelm us.
We cease being able to see other people, we cease to be able to interpret reality.
You've had conversations with people deep inside of a shame cycle and their desctiption of reality is completely skewed. It distorts everything and can leave us feeling incredible defeated and attacked on all sides.
A lot of our own shame centers around the lack of grace we extend ourselves. We expect to get people and situations right the first time and when we fail we beat ourselves us or place all the blame on others. Our expectations aren't met and that disappointment finds at home at our own doorstep or the doorstep of others.
What if we grieved perfection? What if we grieved the lie that we have it all together? What if we met our own failings with the grace that Christ brings us instead of the scorn we often extend ourselves?
Take a listen and wrestle with grace, grief and everything in between.
