Vulnerable

“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.”

-C.S. Lewis

I pray that I would be constantly vulnerable.
Willing to be torn, broken, and bruised...
I pray that I would be so full of love that I could not help but be vulnerable 24/7.
Because what is love really if you always give?
I would run dry.
To truly give, you have to be open to it.
Vulnerable...
I pray to be vulnerable...
