redemption stories
Pour yourself a glass or cup of your favorite morning beverage and then take in the powerful truths in this video:
Patti and I met Ashley Higgins, Lindsay Nelson, Birkleigh Foreman and Drea Statzer at Training Camp last June. It would be their option to tell you their story, but I remember specifically Lindsay approaching me after one of the sessions and her eyes filling up with tears and holy fire. It is like she stepped from one world, into Kingdom, in a moment. The awe and wonder (words we don’t use very often at church) consumed her. Same with Birkleigh and Drea. The kids that God sends to THE WORLD RACE all have a story. They all have an influence that includes their past, but few allow themselves to be chained to that past. It is the same with every one of us who lives beyond our own redemption story! It should motivate us to move past the old wounds, old bondage, old offenses and old failure. We SHOULD be inspired to grasp TODAY in hope and expectancy! HE is for us! Who can be against us?
The Apostle said it best: “…but one thing I do…forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus”.
Thank you ladies! Thank you Ashley! Your words hold weight and the majesty of Christ!
