No lose for words? Have you ever been so full of enthusiasm or astonishment that you couldn't hold back your words? I remember seeing something strange in the sky years ago. I stopped my car, watched in awe as it sped away into the distance, then drove home and told my parents everything, words pouring out so fast I had to explain it twice.
Think about it. I had to share what I saw with my parents, regardless of their reaction. It was too important to keep secret or measure my words.
God’s Word: “Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working. (Galatians 6:7-8).”
Similarly, in our relationships, especially with God, we should share our secrets without worrying about perception. Even those things that seem difficult to share. Holding back weakens relationships. True love means being intimate, sharing even embarrassing or deeply personal things. Opening up to others and God is not a sign of weakness. A Christian should never be at a loss for words when sharing love.
We pray. “Heavenly Father, grant us the courage to share openly with those we love and especially with You. Help us to unburden ourselves without fear of judgment, knowing that true intimacy strengthens us. Teach us that opening up is not weakness but a testament to our faith. In Jesus name. Amen.”
“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself
. Each day has enough trouble of its own” (Matthew 6:34)
