Open and Honest

The springboards of a facet of God's glory in the Gospel: They can help show us this glory, but they aren't ultimate.

I want to (want to) share weakness with guys, which is completely counterintuitive. You know how gorillas pound their chests to get the hot girl gorillas' attention? Guys aren't much different here (evolution proved???) Alpha males earned their status by strength, not weakness....

What if I (hypoTHETICally) ask a girl on a date, and tell all my female coworkers beforehand? I am suddenly vulnerable on Monday, not having known how it would go in the first place.... am I completely destroyed if I get rejected? Is she the only thing that matters to me if it goes well?

Both of these scenarios set up the Gospel of Jesus shining through half-hearted love for the King, broken attempts to love Him and be found in his perfectness.

That is a reason why I want to try and be open and honest. Help me if I'm being nice. I probably need a slap in the face.
