"For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God."
John 3:20-21
I wonder if all of our instincts to hide mean that we are going away from the light, and it's only when we are proud of our accomplishments and willing to share them with others freely that we are walking in the right path. It's an interesting way to look at and evaluate life... what are we willing to share with others, and what not? What are we ashamed of, and what do we only reveal to a select group that will "understand?" Do we change topics or speech patterns depending on the company? Do we change who we are depending on what people will think? Someday, I think, when we have nothing at all to hide from anyone, we will have come completely to God.
