1. Being alive is incomplete Brennan Manning The honesty is so precious commodity that is rarely found in the world of Church. Honesty requires honesty to admit the apegos and the dependencies that control our attention dominate our consciences and act as false gods. I can be so addicted to vodka and suck each other, both in marijuana and be loved, both in game and relationships, Both in soccer and gossip. My dependency can be food, popularity, money, power, revenge, reading, television, tobacco, weight or success. When we give priority to anything more than we God made idolatry . Therefore, all made idolatry countless times a day. Once we accept the Gospel of grace and seek to get rid of mechanisms defence and beating honesty becomes more difficult at the same time and more important. Now honestly involves the provision of deal truth about what we are, no matter how unpleasant menacing or our perceptions can be. Means persevere with us and God, mental by discernindo our tricks as they experience, derrotam Recognizing our leaks, assuming our lapses, learning so complete that we are not capable of dealing with us. This strong self confrontation requires strength and courage. Cannot use the failure as an excuse to leave try. Without honesty staff can easily create a very image impressive myself. Complacency will take the place of the pleasure of God. Many of us do not want the truth about ourselves; we prefer have our virtue reaffirmed, as shown in the following illustration: One day a preacher told a friend: - We have just had the biggest brightening that our church tried in many years. -How many new members you added to the list? asked him. -No. Lost five hundred. Be vivo is incomplete. And incomplete is lack of grace. Honesty in maintains contact our grace and truth that we are sinners saved . There is a beautiful transparency in honest disciples that never use a mask and not pretend to be anything beyond what they are. When a man or woman are truly honest (and are not yet only working in this direction, it is virtually impossible to insult them personally. There is nothing there to insult. Those of us who are truly ready for the Kingdom are such persons. Your inner spirit poverty and strict honesty the liberated. Are people that they had nothing be proud of. There was the woman hamlet that pecadora beijou the feet of Jesus. There was freedom doing what. Scorned as prostitute, she accepted before the Lord, the truth of its flagrant condition anything. She did not have anything to lose. She loved very much because it had been forgiven him. The well called good thief was terrorist acknowledged receive rewards fair for their crimes. He also had nothing of what we can be proud. The good Samaritan , chosen as Christian compassion model was abandoned as herege of pagan Jewish ancestry and miscigenada. He was so impure that when In contrast to the priest and broad levita which passed with their aureolas tight, could afford the luxury of express your love by man injured left ali to die. Be honest with us makes us not unacceptable to God. Honestly not in distance of God, but we trawl for him-as no other thing get-leaves us opened renewed for the flow of Grace. While Jesus call each one of us lives most perfect, we are not able to do so by our own efforts. Being alive is incomplete, incomplete is lack of grace. It is through grace only that any of us can dare hope becoming more like Christ. The sinner unless the Halo pie has been converted to distrust, confidence reached a poverty and internal spirit, which can live better rigorously honesty towards you with each other and with God. THE in the Gospel of grace is just this: who separates the the love of Christ? What you are afraid? You have fear that its weakness can of love of Christ? It cannot. You have fear that their inadequacies can of love of Christ? They cannot. You have fear that their poverty inside can of love of Christ? It cannot. Marriage difficult, loneliness, anxiety about the future of children? Cannot. Low self-esteem? Cannot. Difficulty cost-effective, racial hatred, crime on the streets? Cannot. Rejection by ones or suffering by ones? Cannot. Persecution authorities, go to the chain? Cannot. War nuclear? Cannot. Errors, fears, uncertainties? Cannot. THE the Gospel of grace clamoring: nothing can ever separate you from the love of God become visible in Christ Jesus our Lord. You must be convinced to trust this and should not ever forget Remember that. All remaining passes, but the love of Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever. Faith becomes vision, the hope becomes possession, but love of Jesus Christ, which is stronger than death, remains forever.In the end, is the only thing you can feel.
