Can't Stop Now

I know that some who may read this think that I am totally crazy. You think I should just get over this and move on, or maybe you think that it will ware off soon enough and I will just go back to being my same old self. Well that's not going to happen. I can't stop moving forward because the minute I do I will fall 2 steps back and that means falling over the edge and never coming back. So you see there is no stopping now. I have to move forward. I have to change the sound in my home and in my family. You see this peace, this joy, THIS FREEDOM may cost me everything, but if it does it's a price I have to pay. My heart breaks when I see people who refuse to take the very steps that could set them totally free because i can see how they are just like I was. They are afraid of what they may have to give up. Their afraid of who or what it may cost them. My prayer for you is that you reach beyond your fears and you will find the freedom God has for you. It will cost you something but whatever it cost God will restore to you in greater measure.

Love you

What's this FREEDOM

What is this freedom I am talking about?  You see for the first time in a very long time I am truly free in Christ.  I have walked around for the past couple of years bound up totally by depression and mind numbing sadness.  I could find no way out and there seemed to be no end.  People kept telling me I needed to just get over it and move on but that seemed like the impossible dream.  No matter how much I prayed and read my Bible there didn't seem to be an answer for me.  The fact is that I was in such bondage I could not see the light of day.  The answers were there I just couldn't find them.  

Here is the beauty of this story, I now know where the answers can be found.  This kind of freedom is only found in totally surrendering every thing to Christ and leaving the sadness and the guilt at the alter for him to carry.  No longer do I have to carry this burden.  You see I AM FREE!!!!
