*I met a God this year I did not know
before. I saw a God who loves the lost and breaks our hearts for what
breaks His. I saw a God who wants to wake up the sleeping nations and
bring restoration. I met a God this year that awakened my soul to who
He really is.
*God is CRAZY in love with us. Despite
our flaws, short-comings, and failings God will always love me. I can
never lose His love.
*The Holy Spirit is alive and active.
Life in the Spirit is not just something that happened in the Bible.
The same Spirit that was alive in Paul is in me as well.
*Christ gives us His authority. The
authority that Christ had to cast out demons is the same authority
Christ gives me. It is time we believe miracles and healings are real
because God wants us to be His mouth of truth, His hands of healing,
and His love that is alive through our faith.
*God is asking more of every single
person. We have a responsibility to share Christ with the world, with
our family, with those we don’t know. Deciding to live for Christ
is the hardest and the best decision we will ever have to make. A
life with God is signing up for rejection, hardships, and one hell of
a life in freedom. If this was easy everyone would give their life to
God. We have not signed up to sit on the sidelines and let ‘that
stronger Christian’ do the work…the work is for you and for me.
*I have lived this year with the fire
of God within me and I am addicted. God has given me His goodness and
I chose to live within it for the remainder of my life. God set my
mouth on fire with His truth. He gave me His words and confidence to
be able to stand in front of others and offer His freedom to anyone
who is hungry. His Spirit struck me to the ground and gave me the
gift of tongues. I will edify my God with these words and by my life.
*The call of a life in Christ has been
offered and I say YES. My life before the race was a life of
searching. I was searching for fulfillment, acceptance, love, and
basically myself. I am no longer searching. Christ has told me who I
am in Him and what my role in the Kingdom is. The ‘American Dream’
that I pictured for my life is no longer there. I see a life of
igniting our generation to rise up and be the women and men of God
that we are called to be. I see a life of breaking the chains of
bondage that are holding the bar girls captive in Thailand. I see a
life with Christ that I could never imagine for myself…I see
freedom in Christ wherever the road takes me.
