Day 1 | Guilt vs. Shame
Guilt says we did something bad, while shame says we are bad. This difference is
so important. Your identity, who you are, does not change when you sin. Shame
can be deceiving and cause you to hide yourself. In our shame we tend to run from
God instead of to God. But God wants us to run to him. He will embrace us with
open arms.
ENGAGE:
In what ways or areas of your life do you experience shame?
Have you been able to talk to a trusted friend, parent, or mentor about the shame
you feel? What would it take for you to do that?
In prayer ask God where you have run away from him instead of to him.
