Lift Your Spirit

Do you have the confidence to celebrate having a Testimony? That’s what the party is all about …

In this self-glorifying and image driven world we live in, it’s easy to get lost in what really doesn’t matter.

So we float along, day after day, believing that we really don’t matter. Nothing could be further from the truth, Friend.

Your life and all that’s packed into it — all of it, the good, the bad, the glorious and the ugly — it all matters to the One Who is waiting for you to turn around and embrace Him.

The heartache that you think you cannot survive, the pain of rejection that keeps reeling in the frontal part of your brain, the devastation of yesterdays and yesteryears that don’t seem to let up … Jesus took all that upon Himself and nailed it to the Cross on your behalf. The present chaos and endless hauntings of your missteps, mishaps, misdeeds — that can be resolved and healing can begin. But it takes that initial step on your part — to move forward — and cast it all into the loving Hands that are stretched out to catch you as you collapse from exhaustion.

And then you, too, Sweet Friend, can jump up and declare your Testimony to the world that tried to hold you back and down.

Jesus does that. He turns your mess into a miraculous message of hope and life. You were worth dying for.

Because He came to give that to you. And that message will transform you from the inside out.

That Testimony can only emerge from a humble and broken heart that is genuinely seeking to be healed. It is not a trend. It is not a temporary phase. It may not draw in a ton of ‘likes.’ It may even result in being disowned by those whom you thought were your friends.

But that choice is yours alone, Friend. You can remain stuck in agony or step into your healing.

It is my prayer that you will choose the better road …

I love you to Heaven and Back, Girlfriend ~~
