"i love that i am now truly an open book- there's nothing to hide when you are forgiven."

This is something my friend elizabeth (the other one) wrote on her myspace and i love it.   God has been teaching me this recently.  My past is not a part of me in the sense that it is me.  I am redeemed.  I am a new person!  God rescued me (of all the attributes of God, I like this one the most.  Today, at least) from...well, me.  I can talk about my past.  I can talk about the horrible things I've done, the unwise decisions I've made and I'm no longer ashamed.  Because I'm free.  (I feel like saying, "So THAT'S what they mean by freedom in Christ!  I get it now!)

Anyway, the hail yesterday was awesome at my house.  I've got pictures that I'll post in a minute!  And last night - fabulous.  I love theatre, good food, and good conversation, and last night was all three.  Plus hanging out with john and olivia...always fun.  and the lightening was unbelievable on our drive back to m'boro- we kept saying, "Do it again!"

And that's all for now.

as a result of me spending so much time around justin vance, what elizabeth, the other one, and you wroe really hit home with me. Justin always says that he can't stand it when people say that they are "just a sinner saved by grace" because if you are saved then you a no longer a sinner you are a saint saved by grace. for a long time that phrase didn't mean much to me, but lately it has really been sinking into my mind...

it's almost like He wants us to understand this "freedom in being a child of God" thing... you rock my face off, thanks for that!

Booyaaaa! I can completly relate... we all have hidden sins and crap but after you get to the point you know you are forgiven and all you want to do is run full force into God's loving arms you don't care anymore.... The freedom thing has a lot to do with that i think. God has given us freedom over our old self! He has given us freedom over this world and its standards! It is so hard to completly understand that but when we do, just a little, we are blown away. God has given us a way to have victory over this life! It is up to us if we strive for that freedom and victory! The question i keep asking myself is do i really want that victory and freedom enough? Im not sure. Yea i want it.... but do i thirst for it passionatly? I dont.... not all the time at least.... But I have to continue passionatly seek that passion haha if that made sense... anyways rock on i hope you have a great day!
