It sad when one of the most exciting things that happen in my life is a new journal!!! It is like the first day of school or the beginning of a new year to me!!!
I do feel as if I am dawning on a new era. I am in the middle of my journey on the freedom trail or more often the "trail of tears" in the Breaking Free Bible Study with Beth Moore. It has been awesome!!! I am sure God was laughing when I offered to lead it, simply because I had completed it years ago and was of course not in bondage.
This study has helped me to address so many issues, thoughts and lies that I believe. God has not spoken to me through it, but has been screaming at me to open my eyes and believe!!! Without boring you with details or embarrassing myself with confessing, I have been in the midst of a battle, spiritual, emotional and the past week, even physical. I have cried everyday for the last 3 weeks, but instead of hiding my struggles and emotions, I want to embrace them. In the Bible, during times of mourning, they would rip their clothes and put ashes on their heads...I don't think it will come to that, but don't be surprised!!!
Today feels different. I feel as if the battle has come to an end and I am ready to embrace freedom. I am ready to believe, trust and rest in the Lord. I am ready to stop peeking around the corner like a little child and throw down the chains that have attached my to lies and run to the safety and comfort of the Lord's arms.
