The worst part about breaking a glass usually doesn't happen until long after the big drop. Right when you've forgotten about the broken glass, and you're walking through the kitchen barefoot your naked foot is suddenly pierced by something you thought you had cleaned up. After you say a few unpleasant words to express the pain, you pick out the glass, put a bandage over the cut, and come to realization with the fact that maybe, just maybe you didn't do that great a job of cleaning up. You breathe in deeply and begin to sweep for more of the glass that you broke long ago. This time, you check under cabinets, between cracks, under the refrigerator, under tables, under chairs, and behind the deep freezer. You even go into the next room to make sure nothing popped there. At this point, you can never be too careful. After all, who wants to keep stepping on hidden pieces? Pretending to be okay after a traumatizing experience is much like stepping on hidden pieces of glass. Over time, the pain we attempt to hide appears in our relationships, careers, and ultimately our relationship with God. True healing requires openness and honesty. There is power in releasing and being honest about our afflictions. Only when we begin to free ourselves from the shame of our pain can we truly begin to heal.In this book, Author Shakita Taylor tells her story of being broken by abuse, bound by shame, and finally becoming naked before God for true healing. The author includes a 5-Day Workbook to assist readers as they jumpstart their healing.
