in the closet faith

A lot of the time, many christians remain in the closet. hiding their faith and not opening up and sharing about it. maybe it's more than about the faith but maybe one's character. yesterday, i saw shadowlands, a play about cs lewis' life. i got a glimpse on his faith and how he lived. he was a christian through and through but when is came to relationships, he had to make choice about about showing his love of someone who was not available. his friends tried to keep him straight but the heart won over and he did what made him who he was. even the strong can sometimes take a step back to cover up the rest of life. personally, it happens to me too. a lot depends on the situation and how we feel. we need to feel more open more.
