Throw Away The Shame

Join me, Alison Elizabeth as we read out of Isaiah 54:4 which says "Fear not; you will no longer live in shame. Don’t be afraid; there is no more disgrace for you. You will no longer remember the shame of your youth and the sorrows of widowhood"

"The same way you can be a fan of the Star Wars franchise without reading and watching every text created, you can have a personal relationship with Christ without having read the Bible in its entirety.

I personally haven’t read the full bible, cover to cover, and I told myself for many years that I would never be capable of something like this. I told myself that because I hadn’t read the Bible cover to cover, I wasn’t eligible to share my testimony or my prayers.

That ideology is crippling and shameful. Just like I am now beginning to watch the clone wars, I too am reading more of the Bible. Somethings are starting to make more sense. As I continue watching the show, I can take note of the references I have seen in other movies or series. The same thing will happen as you read your Bible. A lot of the love and faith you’ve encountered in your walk with Christ will make a lot more sense as we start reading the full story.

Just like those that have only seen one movie, and love the movies, you could be a person who’s read one verse, encountered Jesus one time, and still love Him. The beauty of our relationship with Jesus is that after we encounter Him, we begin a journey of a lifetime, learning more about Him. Reading more of the Bible, learning to surrender, learning to lean into our faith. Don’t diminish your love for Jesus because you’ve only recently started to get to know Him. Don’t diminish your love for Him even if you’ve known Him all of your life, but never got around to reading the full Bible.

Our takeaway today is to remember to throw away the shame. Jesus di
