I was forgiven by God and found “not guilty”,
but why did I continue to live as guilty,
as a prisoner in my own skin?
Recently, I watched a movie about the children of the Holocaust.
After these precious children were released from the prisoners’ camp,
they were sent to a place where they were shown love
by being cared for.
Their first reactions were always from a position of fear.
It was hard for them to accept
love and
to trust those
who cared for them
because of the mistreatment and the sorrow they experienced in the past.
All they knew was abuse,
so they responded to everything defensively and fearfully.
They acted guilty,
even though there was no crime.
It took time for these children to trust and accept love from others.
After I accepted Christ into my life,
it took time for me to really grasp the
Love
He had for me.
It was too much to fathom,
it was hard to accept this gift
because I felt so beaten.
I was not able to accept
God’s
Forgiveness
&
Love...
because I didn’t feel perfect...yet.
(Excerpt above from my book "Weightless Flying Free")
But
Forgiveness is love
Forgiveness is power
Forgiveness is the key
that unlocks
the chains
that hold us back
to live
as
Free Indeed
because
Forgiveness
is
Perfect Love
given
to be
received
by
me
&
by you.
Forgiveness
Because Jesus said~
He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners. Luke 4:18
to set us
Free Indeed.
What chains do you wear that hold you back from flying free... indeed?
Do you believe God's Forgiveness is enough to set you free...indeed?
Let's
Put into Practice
Living Free
by
Receiving & Believing
you are
Forgiven
no matter what you may have done
no matter why you may do
Forgiven
because
if the Son has set you free
you will be free indeed. John 8:36
My chains are gone
I've been set free
My God my Savior
has ransomed me...
