A few thoughts

I have learned that when I allow myself to be even more honest with Jesus and when I allow myself to be completely UNDONE in his presence, something remarkable happens. He puts me back together. One touch from him, one kind word (or many) change it all. I'm not saying it's perfect instantly, but it's different. Redeemed.  It puts me at rest to know that when I ask Him to change a part of me that's rough or ugly, He takes that seriously. He's the most faithful person I know to take my mess and transform it into something of Him.  He is heart oriented. It doesn't matter how you worship as long as you worship in spirit and truth.

I feel like it's time we believers begin to honor God by speaking the truth about his truest nature. His kind heart, his ferocious passion to see His creation living a life of Freedom.  Free to look at Jesus with unveiled face. Free from the burden of works to earn right standing with God.  Because of Jesus I am free to enter the rest of Christ's finished work. You don't have to be cleaned up before you come to Him- let Him wash you with his blood and the water of his Word.

He's so solid and nothing escapes him. I don't particularly like the saying "the devil is in the details." Mainly because my eyes have been opened to the goodness of God by his dealings with the "details" of my life. My GOD, he is kind. The biggest truth taken away from this week and weekend. Jesus Christ didn't suffer, die, and rise again to make us safe- He died to make us FREE.Whom the Son sets free, is free indeed. 

 He. Changes. Things.

Praying for endurance and clarity for the days to come.

For if by the one man’s offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.) (Romans 5:17 NKJV)

^{John 8:36} So if the Son liberates you [makes you free men], then you are really and unquestionably free.
