Limitations
2 Corinthians
“We are Limited beings and in our
limitations we allow our fear to overflow our being.” -Papa in The
Shack.
Limitations,
this word as well as its meaning has become my number one enemy. His
relatives, pain, anger and bitterness are close behind and not
helpful when seeking forgiveness, healing and love in all its forms.
I've
grown to hate that word, Limitation. To me it means weakness,
worthless, failure and any other negative word that pops into my
head. However, recently its brought a new meaning. A meaning that
has never really been accepted, at least by me. Maybe it was because
it was too painful and for some reason I did not fully understood the
meaning.
I
have found that even though I have limitations, the limitation does
not always have to be negative. Childish thinking, I know, but truth
non-the-less. Many think that limitations are negative but on the
contrary, it is necessary for “Papa” to plant, grow and harvest
his plan for our benefits and lives, and shape us into who He wants
us to be. With out limitations and feeling of loss, we could not
begin to understand the feeling of great gain, the feeling of deep
peace and the joy of finding Love that has never left us.
