The origins of our word vulnerable are found in a Latin word that means \\u201cto wound\\u201d. We all know that to be fully known is to open ourselves up to the possibility of being wounded. When we let down our armor, when we expose the wounds of our past\\xa0 as part of the healing journey is risky and scary, but my guest this week, Toni Collier, says, \\u201cBe brave.\\u201d\\xa0

Be brave enough to be just who you are before God - he knows you already and loves you unconditionally. Be brave enough to be just who you are before yourself and let guilt indicate places that need to change and banish shame. Be brave enough to be who you are before safe people who can walk with you, supporting your unsteady but important healing steps. There are better, healthier relationships to be had through the healing journey. As Toni would say, \\u201churt and hope can coexist.\\u201d
