It had started thousands of years before that we would feel shameful. It started at a tree in the Garden of Eden when
Adam and Eve felt so ashamed of themselves they hid from God and tried to cover themselves with leaves. They were ashamed
of the sin they had committed and they didn't see things the same as before.
Jesus came to take away our shame all the way back to Adam and Eve. As he hung on the cross and games were played to
win his garments, he hung there naked taking our shame upon himself. If you feel ashamed of the things that you have done
just know that God loves you still and that Jesus took all of your shame on the cross. Now we need to forgive ourselves for
our mistakes and failures and realize that we are special and can have joy instead of shame because of Jesus!
