As we finish out the last few days of 2014, I am INSPIRED.
I am inspired to look back and reflect on the journey. And a journey it has been! Pain, tears, loneliness and heartache. A common theme in my young life. Wanting to live for the Lord but not knowing how to get there. The pull to be loved no matter the cost superseded the "rules" in His word. Wisdom beyond my years but not understood by my peers. Fear of being who I was destined to be. After all, the Lord had a specific plan for me. An emptiness and an ache that no man could fill and my heart could not take......until I met Him.
This is not about preaching or being holier than though. This is about the real life struggles that young women who love the Lord goes through. Because the truth is as Christians we are having sex in the church, we are struggling with lusts and perversions. We've been raped and abused, misused and mistreated. We are drinking, lying, committing adultery and sinning just like the rest of the world. We don't know our worth or better yet, we have yet to learn our identity in Christ.
Its time to become conscious.
Its time for transparency.
Its time for healing.
It's time for understanding why we keep making the same choices and decisions.
Its time to bind those soul ties that keep us connected.
Its time to get to know Him more intimately than our "first love".
Its time to get busy in the Kingdom.
Its time to live on purpose.
Its time to walk in the power of the Holy Spirit.
Its time to become that Proverbs 31 woman.
Its time to be the change that we so desperately want to see. Its time to share our testimonies. Its time to trust God with our whole heart, body, mind and soul. Its time to forgive and let go.
Its time to help the next sister who is still learning her way.
I stand as a witness to the power of the Lord to completely change your life once you yield fully to Him.
Are you inspired?
