DIA to Burlington
I've been in Denver for 6 days, dragging my feet. My perception has been flawed, my outlook dim, my faith weak, my spirit chained down to negative feelings by my own mind. I'm trying to break free of the shackles I've put around my faith and my joy and my life, and I see that sometimes freedom means adherance to something bigger, something so much more than what I want and who I am. There truly is a cost of freedom, and He paid it for us, but we still have to reciprocate. There was no way for us to pay that price, and the price of reciprocation is so easy compared to that burden He carried. I've been running and hiding and rebelling from the freedom that Jesus bought me, and I'm tired of denial. I'm ready to accept my brokenness and accept the price I get to pay. Jesus is the way and the truth and the life. None come to the Father, or get into Heaven, or truly have life and freedom, but through Him. Deny it all you want. I'll keep praying for you, and He'll keep chasing your heart. I hope you have the strength for the fight. I was running out, and I need to save some for reaching my goals, making my dreams come true. Jesus is helping me do that. I'm blessed, truly! I love you all, and I hope you are sleeping well and waking with a smile. Life is beautiful...
