A new life in Christ

The first weekend of this month, I had the blessed opportunity to participate in the first Northern Illinois Chrysalis Journey #1. God did some remarkable and very amazing things in my heart that weekend. I am proud to announce that I'm free of the burden that I carried on myself. I wouldn't forgive myself for the mistakes that I made early on in my Army career, personal choices. God had forgiven me years ago...I wasn't letting go cause I felt I was unworthy of such an "easy" forgiveness. God really really pressed on my heart it was time to let go of it and accept His forgiveness, His forgiveness that wasn't easy...His forgiveness that put His Son on the cross to bear my shame, my heartbreak, my pain, my bad choices. He did the same for you. I urge you today, to really reflect on whatever is troubling you and freely give it over to God. Because You Are Worth It. Don't harbor your pain and let it eat you up inside. Joy in Christ is waiting for you, all you have to do is let go, and let God.

I hope you enjoy the pictures from this weekend!

The group picture was my table family...the Rebels 4 Christ!
