Let me be a little
vulnerable with you…
I
sit down at my computer every so often, ready to write out a really outstanding
blog post. But as you can see, it
has been a while since I have posted anything.  I have so much that is stirring up in my chest that needs to
break free, but I find it so incredibly hard to effectively express it in
words, let alone trying to explain it any other way!  I have come to realize that I am never going to have a
“perfect” blog post but the best that I can do is give you what I have from my
heart.  So here goes…  The beginning of the many blog posts
soon to follow during this God-adventure that I will embark on in less than 3
months! 🙂
 
         God has already been
doing so much work in my life these past few months since finding out about the
World Race.  Actually, when I
really think about it, God has been preparing me for this for a while now!  Shaping me, molding me, stretching me, twisting me, etc into the woman that He has created me to be.
 
         I am grasping how
deep the Father’s LOVE is for us…for me. 
I thought I knew what it felt like to be loved by the King, but I really
had no idea the fullness of His love…and honestly, I know that I still can’t
grasp it all!  And I know that I am
going to experience God’s love like none other during these 11 months that I
will be gone. 
He
desires FREEDOM for my life.  No
reservations.  You might know me as
a reserved person in my actions, but when it comes to Jesus Christ, I don’t
want to be reserved at all!…  You
know those “crazy” people that we see dancing around and praising Jesus?  I WANT TO BE LIKE THAT!  I want to love and worship my King
freely with what is in my heart!  I
have so much energy that I am letting store up in my chest…it needs to be set
free.  No limits!
 
 
 
Ahh
I knew God would show up and help me with this post…and He just did! (hehe).  I have music playing in the background as I write this.  One of my favorite songs, & actually a song that I would
like to tag as one of my “theme songs” for my life over this past year, just started
playing through my speakers.  I didn’t realize it until
now though how the lyrics are taking on a new meaning for me and honestly this couldn’t
better express how I am feeling!! 
So let me leave you with the lyrics to “Freedom Is Here” by Hillsong
United…
 
 
“The future comes alive
You speak Your word and I
I’m running into Your hope
Because I’ve seen Your light
You bring my world to life
I’m coming after Your love
 
I’m not shaken
I’m not letting go
 
And everything comes alive
In my life as we lift You higher
Let Your freedom arise
In our lives as we lift You up
Sing it out
Sing it out
Your freedom is here
 
So take the
limits off
No matter
what the cost
I’m running
after Your call
And I will
run this
[World] race
See You face
to face
So let Your
power overflow
 
I will not fear
I will not hide Your love
Your love
All of my life
I cannot deny Your love
Your love”
