No Shame


Genesis 2:25 Adam and his wife were both naked, and they felt no shame.

In the very beginning, God created man and woman and had this relationship with them, to where they were completely vulnerable and unafraid in his presence.

Can you imagine?  

When we think of nakedness physically, it’s something we hide from everyone, except in our most intimate times with our husbands.  And even then, many women are uncomfortable in their nakedness because of shame regarding weight, looks, or previous abuse.

But being naked spiritually is laying bare all of our dreams, hopes, disappointments and fears and still feeling comfortable in HIS presence.

That’s how Adam and Eve were created to be, and it’s how we are intended to be too, in his presence. 

But of course, we know that the no-shame feeling didn’t last for long…

Stay tuned to tomorrow's devo....
