<\/a>by Doug Wilson from Blog and Mablog \u2013 When Your Kayak is Small<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\nEditor\u2019s note: More Doug Wilson word salad that makes zero sense in light of the life of recovery from sexual abuse. I think, I hope at least, that this might be the final episode of Wilson\u2019s toxic advice.<\/em><\/p>\n The world is unfair. The world is a fallen place. This means that we have to \u201ctake measures,\u201d and when we take measures, we are not approving<\/em> of the things we are guarding against. You should want to see the world accurately, and be prepared for that<\/em>, which is quite different from preparing for an imaginative world (the kind with green meadows and fluffy clouds all the time) that you hope might be happening somewhere, somehow. This is, if you will pardon my French, a worldview made up of unicorn farts.<\/p>\n Related to all of this is the question of identity. You have certain creational identities, given to you by God, which are to be enjoyed\u2014but not allowed to become idols. If you prevent them from becoming idols in your life, you will enjoy them, along with your foundational identity of being a creation of God\u2019s, and redeemed by Him on top of that. There are competitive identities that are necessarily idolatrous and which must always be resisted.<\/p>\n And last, my exhortation to you was that you make sure to taken refuge from every threat in the fortress of your God. Hide in His pavilions. Let Him be your shield and buckler. He loves you, treasures you, and He will always take care of you.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n QUOTING QUIVERFULL is a regular feature of NLQ \u2013 we present the actual words of noted Quiverfull leaders, cultural enforcers and those that seek to keep women submitted to men and ask our readers: What do you think?
