"Cliff Layers"
I see the rocky cliffs,
exposing their layers,
and I think about how it takes strength to show our insides--
the hard grit that makes us into who we are.
They are strong and stable,
have survived millennia,
and yet they are
open,
honest,
stark,
beautiful,
and vulnerable
in all that they reveal.
I think about how Christ tells us to build upon the Rock,
How He is our Rock,
How the Church is built upon the rock.
It is absolute,
unadorned,
powerful,
and true.
Can I tap into this kind of strength?
Can I be OK with this openness,
standing in the strength of vulnerability?
Revealing,
yet resilient?
