A New Creation In Christ

Once again I have experienced God claim four of his daughters back to Him, where they belong, fully and completely. Four women who are no longer in bondage, four women who are no longer suffocated by shame and guilt because that shame and guilt...are gone! Four women who were brave enough to face the shame of their past choice and bring it into His holy light of redemption where a forever healing took place. Four women who have allowed their heart to emotionally attach to their child in heaven. Four women who can now be used by Him fully and effectively to share of God’s true love and goodness and how His desire is to pour out His grace and mercy to all who have fallen short.
I know firsthand that this journey for these women was not always easy but it’s through this process I see concrete evidence of God drawing these women, His daughters, back into His perfect arms and once a person really knows what it feels like to be in His arms, and these women now know, they will never want to leave again for it’s in His arms that safety, love, contentment, belonging, and never-ending grace is found.
I just want to commend these women for trusting me but above all trusting God. Thank you for seeing this through and completing the race that was set before you. Now its on to the next race, whatever that might be. Let yourselves be used by your Father. You each have an amazing story of redemption to share whether it be to one person, small groups, large groups or just a stranger whom God may place in your path. I can promise you that there is nothing better or more fulfilling than being used by God. Remember what you have learned the past ten weeks because what you have learned will last for eternity. It’s Truth, plain and simple!
Now, go out and let your light shine bright! Love you all!
