“Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is FREEDOM. And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into His likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.” 2 Corinthians 3:17-18
I can boldly proclaim that I saw these verses come to life this week at training camp. Where the Spirit of the Lord is… there is, in fact, freedom. And I will not be the only one to say, the Spirit of the Lord was present in Gainesville, Georgia this week and freedom was embraced. I am no longer veiled. My eyes have been opened. I have seen the glory of the Lord and I pray I reflect that.
I came to training camp holding on to so many different things. Things I was not even aware of.
Fear. Of the unknown, of vulnerability, of changing.
Insecurity.
Unforgiveness.
Comfort.
I can now confidently say I am no longer fearful of what is to come this next year. I am secure in who I am and who Christ has called me to be, regardless of what or who I am surrounded by. Unforgiveness no longer has a place in my life. I am embracing the discomfort that took place this week and will continue throughout the next 13 months of my life. I don’t want to have a comfortable faith any longer.
