Soul Snack 31/11 ... The Shadow of Attachment

Attachment is the emotional connection between two people. The foundations for attachment are found in the bonds forged very early in life between an infant and a primary care giver.

In life's variegated, troubled or peaceful beginnings are sown the seeds that can develop or destroy subsequent relational health.

There is a broken attachment between us and our primary care-giver. The blindness to His grace, the ignorance of His love and the disbelief of His good-will all indicate living at best in an eternal shadow.

Yet the God who names the stars, counts your tears and changes His records each time you comb your hair is BIG on attachment.

He nailed unbreakable bonds at Golgotha and guaranteed them from an empty tomb. His crucified light meant no more shadow living.

How can I remove shadowy living?

How can I enjoy the light of loving attachment?

This is found when I step into the light of His love each day upon my knees.

While I am in the world, I am the light of the world (Jn 9:5)
