Anyway, it's a good book, and I highly recommend it. Or you can borrow it from me... :)
Naked and not Ashamed - T.D. Jakes |
"Be prepared to be challenged by Naked and Not Ashamed as you have never been challenged before! Here Bishop T.D. Jakes calls for believers to strip away all layers of superficiality, religious reasonings, and pious pretendings. We need to be real - to be honest before God and man. Our example, Jesus Christ Himself, ministered and died in total openness before us. How can the hurting around us receive help and healing unless we too are Naked and Not Ashamed?"
I picked up many great, motivating and inspiring truths in the book. Here's one of them that I read just today.
"...Most of the time God delivers us (or is in the process of delivering us) while we maintain a veil of secrecy to protect our reputations and public perceptions. These secular scholars would be appalled if they knew how many of us were in serious trouble when we came to our wit's end and submitted to the redemptive work of the Lord. It was He who delivered us out from under the stress and the strain of our crises. His power forces open the fowler's snare that entrapped the mind. His Word gives us the grace to seize the opportunity to escape and go on with our lives!..."
Ooh... time to read more and go to bed. It's Friday tomorrow already! Not, looking at the time, it's TODAY. The week has kinda flown by... the year is picking up its pace.
One step, two steps... three steps... and we're almost somewhere!
