Day 2: Released


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...
