Are you exhausted from the fight? The struggle? The resist and then then fail? Then try, then fail, then good, then fail, then try again, then fail...   Maybe you have a few good days, weeks even months...   But it's lurking in the background. Waiting to take you down again. And who knows how long you'll be down this time. Maybe it'll be just this once... maybe you'll be down forever. Maybe you'll never get back out. Maybe you'll never be the man God has called you to be. Truly. Maybe you'll squander the life He gave you...      And no one knows. And the ones that do, don't understand.   Men. I honor you. In your suffering.    I hear you.  I hear you. I hear you.   You are not alone. And there is hope.  And there is a way out.      It's Good Friday tomorrow. And you know the story. And you know the ending. And you know what happens. And you sing the songs. And you attend the service. And you have heard it all -- maybe you even conduct the service. And you know the stuff -- maybe you've memorized it. You teach it to others. And you believe it. And you're even grateful.  Good. That's really good. Really good.     And I want to invite you...   There is a way out of your prison of shame.   Blessings, Belah   PS - Seriously. There is a way out.
