Reading has always been a weakness of mine. It has caused me huge shame, and it’s funny coming from one who is now an author.
Shame is the destructive result of thinking apart from God. Going outside of the realm of God’s definition of my reality is to enter shame.
Oh Jesus, have I not met a slew of intellectuals educated beyond their own intelligence. The deception of education is thinking you KNOW.
