that one time.

In my search for unity and community, I have discovered something very disheartening: I have to be willing to be vulnerable. Vulnerability always leaves room for getting hurt. The trick is not allowing that hurt to root me in bitterness, but instead to grow a deeper and more passionate understanding of the true vulnerability of the human state, and the unimaginably awesome realization that Christ embodied this vulnerability and this hurt in order to pay for my sins and bring glory to the Father.
