Dear Friends,
I am sharing one of my absolute favorite songs & Video's. This is very dear to me.
On the post yesterday I spoke of Mary... I shared
what it must have felt like when she heard Jesus speak her name after He was resurrected.
In that moment, when Jesus speaks, listen closely and let it sink into your soul—because in that one word, He doesn’t just speak your name. He speaks who you are . . . known, loved, and His.
"When he calls her name, she knows Who He is. And when He calls her by name, not only does she know Who He is, she knows who she is, too.
We remember our identity when we hear the voice of the Lord call us by name.
This video reminds us that Jesus forgives us no matter the sin, and frees us of the guilt of yesterday and we don't ever have to go back there again.... but we move forward in gratitude for the freedom He has given us...
Today I am sharing this incredible video and song written by Karyn Williams about the freedom we have in Christ. He paid the ultimate sacrifice. We all wander bruised and battered... we are those who wandered and when we finally let go of the guilt of our yesterdays and accept His gift of forgiveness we allow God's grace to cover our tomorrows and find the freedom He longs to give us if we just accept it...
It's the greatest gift of all and most amazing gift we've been given... and WE HAVE THE FREEDOM TO CHOOSE IT... CHOOSE JESUS.. IT'S FREEDOM.. HE
OFFERS ETERNAL LIFE... The greatest gift of all...and like Mary, we've all got a past we aren't proud of .. and I pray you've chosen Jesus and live in the freedom He has given us. It's not a temporary freedom.. it's for eternity!!!
WHAT SPEAKS TO YOU MOST ABOUT THIS SONG AND THIS VIDEO? PLEASE PROMISE ME YOU WILL WATCH THIS. SHARE WHAT TOUCHES YOUR HEART THE MOST, WHAT SPEAKS LOUDEST TO YOU... HERE ARE THE LYRICS TO THE SONG:
This Is Freedom" Lyrics
by Karyn Williams | from the album Only You
I've been wandering on a broken road
Bruised and battered, 'neath a heavy load
So much sorrow that I can't let go
Bound in my shame, heart like a stone
And now I find You on this broken way
Worn and wounded, 'neath a world of weight
So much mercy written on Your face
You saw me here and took my place
And this is freedom, this is freedom
This is freedom, nailed to a tree
Now these shackles that have held me down
Are unleashed by thorn and crown
Sweet forgiveness pouring from Your brow
Your life for mine, no greater love
And this is freedom, this is freedom
This is freedom, nailed to a tree
And this is freedom, oh blessed freedom
This is freedom, You died for me
Now from the ashes is beauty raised
Out of darkness comes light of day
My hands lifted from these broken chains
Hallelujah!
And this is freedom, this is freedom
This is freedom, You rose for me
And this is freedom, oh blessed freedom
This is freedom for
In that moment, when Jesus speaks, listen closely and let it sink into your soul—because in that one word, He doesn’t just speak your name. He speaks who you are . . . known, loved, and His.
Do we follow? DO WE KNOW HIS FREEDOM?
I am so grateful I do... Join me if you haven't accepted His greatest gift ask Him into your heart.
AMEN!!!
1 John 1:9 New International Version (NIV)
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness
