ready to just move on. ready for a new start. ready to see all that God has for me.
...ready to be all that i'm meant to be!
there's 20 days until it's time to be down at liberty, and i cannot wait! God has just prepared my heart over this past year for such a time as this. i admit..it has been the most trialing year of my life, and i've cried soo many times, but i could not be more thankful for all that He's going to do with it. i've definitely had time to think so many things over, just replaying them allll in my head over and over, but the more i keep thinking and realizing the preparation they've given me, i couldn't think of doing them over.
i've spent some time reading and realizing things....this is an excerpt of something that a friend gave to me..
**The Gift of Woundedness - written by Francis Frangipane..
..."Gift?" you ask. Yes, to be wounded in the service of mercy and, instead of closing our hearts, allow woundedness to crown love, is to realease God's power in redemption. The steadfast prayer of the wounded intercessor holds great sway upon the heart of God...We cannot become Christlike without being wounded. You see, even after we come to Christ, we carry encoded within us preset limits concerning how far we will go for love, and how much we are willing to suffer for redemption. When God allows us to be wounded, He exposes those human boundaries and reveals what we lack of His nature...
the things that God allows us to go through are all a part of Him molding us, and preparing us for what He's going to do in our lives. sometimes we just need to live out hard times in our lives so that we're able to have the complete understand and compassion for others in situations similar to what we've been through. to gain a further knowledge of Christ, we need to experience what He has gone through for us....& even though they might not all be pleasant and enjoyable..
i can't waittt!! :]
