Reckless Love

A Wicked Masquerade
He’s exposed the masquerade of lies. He’s breaking it all down, ripping away the masks, tearing down strongholds, and peeling back layer upon layer. As He exposes more and more it’s like I’m pulling at a string on the bottom of a curtain. The more I pull at the string the more the curtain begins to unravel and the more that the curtain is unraveled the more the truth, that’s been locked away and hidden in me for so long, is revealed.
