so far..

Man. God is pretty amazing hey?

This post is a little different to my other posts, because i feel the need to share some stuff that God has been doing in my life so far. I have so many emotions right now, like i want to jump up and shout and scream because God is doing some awesome things in my life. I’ve just got back from Harvest camp, and man, God seriously did some amazing things to me there. I have no idea where to start..

Have you ever felt like you were trapped by something? Like you were sort of hiding something from everyone, including yourself because you just didnt want to deal with it? It’s funny how God speaks to us. I was sitting in the 3rd row, next to a good friend of mine when the speaker said; “the only way you can grow is by bringing the crap from your life into the light and allowing God to set you free.” As soon as this statement was said, i felt this massive weight over my shoulders, the Holy Spirit was obviously trying to tell me something. I tried to not think about it, ignore it – cos i’ve TOTALLY dealt with that stuff yeh? NO. God was pressing into me cos he wants me to go further, and get rid of all the crap i chose not to deal with until now.

You hear stories and testimonies from people who all say the same thing; that things in their life stuffed up, because they didn’t deal with something God wanted them to deal with and just ignored it. They went on with life pretending nothing had happened because its too hard to deal with something now, so they would deal with it later. What happens when they deal with it? God rips into that stronghold in their life and mends the broken pieces of their life.

But why wait? Why wait til something actually goes wrong in your life to realise that you need to deal with something God clearly wants you to deal with now. Man. I think it’s awesome that God wants to use me. I am so thankful for the fact that i am only 18, and God is setting me free. He is breaking those strongholds in my life, so that i can live a life that is devoted to him.

Nothing is too big for God to forgive. Nothing is too big for God to repair. He is a God of the impossible and you know what, if he can set me free from all the stuff in my life, he can set you free too. All you need to do is say the word.
