Fathers Love Transparency Secret Brings easy freedom over darkness
We live in a world that values strength and belittles weakness. These are opposite values from the Father’s Love.
We idolize characters such as Rambo, John Wayne, and Jason Bourne. It is easy to feel that there is no way to advance in life if people see our weaknesses, our personal struggles. So we tend to be drawn toward hiding these things about ourselves. We want to put them in the dark where no one can see them. Yet, if we can’t even acknowledge we have struggles, how can we ever hope to overcome them?
So how do you live in Fathers love transparency?
Understanding what is darkness and what is light is step one and puts a huge tool in your hands for growth.
Blatant sin, of course, is darkness; however, there can be smaller, less noticeable ways where we might be living in the dark. 1 John 1:6 says,”… if we say we have fellowship with God, but we continue living in darkness, we lie and do not follow the truth.” So what exactly does this “living in darkness” mean? Simply put, anything that is hidden and not exposed. To paraphrase Andrew Murray’s definition of humility, darkness is not being willing to be known for who we really are.
If we are humble – being known for who we really are – then we find no reason to hide our past, our present struggles, or our future dreams. But being open and transparent like this involves risk. If we were to divulge certain things about ourselves, people may reject us or make fun of us, or even worse, they may not love and accept us. And it’s possible they may abandon us.
It’s much easier to stay in the dark than to take the chance of living in openness and transparency, but 
unfortunately, there are “friends” that tend to hang around us there. Fear, worry, anxiety, shame, guilt – all of these can be our ‘best friends’ when we’re in darkness. And there’s no peace or rest there. Only by embracing light do we position ourselves to experience growth and live ever deeper in Father Gods rest.
We can be free from our past and live emotionally present in all our relationships today! By facing the hidden darkness in our lives, we can find freedom to be who we really are, unashamedly. You begin living in the Fathers Love transparency.
Light is the place where we have the actual experience of feeling secure in our Father’s arms and live open-hearted to the world.
