I'm one of those girls who talks a lot about perspective.
I haven't had much lately. Nope, none actually.
But that has changed.
It changed because of freedom. Yes, freedom.
One of my new favorite verses says this "For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery." Galatians 5:1
How amazing is that? Jesus wants us free just because He wants us free. The experience of freedom was enough to set us free.
My story in freedom is a long one. It's one that I'm not sure I can share completely yet. But what I can share is this: I'm not so much a new person now as I am who I should have been all along. I don't really have different qualities, it's more like I have started being who I started as. In the midst of it all, Father has started showing me what part of Himself He has placed inside of me, and the truth of how from the part of Him in me will the wellspring of life flow.
It's huge.
And I can't really explain it all. But I'll try to post my thoughts as they come.
It's a little hard for me to talk about this at all. I'm a REALLY privet person. But Holy Spirit is reminding me of Revelation 12:11 "And they overcame him [the enemy] by of the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony."
For freedom Father wants you free also.
So I'm here to declare my testimony. It is after all how I will overcome the enemy.
I'm free! I'm continuing to fight for freedom everyday. I will not stop fighting for freedom. For when I'm free, I am who Father created me to be. I am who I am because He is I AM.

Ps-The picture is just something that reminds me of freedom--just because it means travel :-)
