I saw myself struggling in the water. It was tiring and I was drowning....
I drowned! As I descend, I felt it was all quiet. Very still, very quiet, very cooling, I suddenly felt very good, I wished I could remain there for a while more, just a while more..... BUT I can't, I remembered I need to breathe! I need to breathe.... my breadth is almost gone. I swam up to the surface of the water and took a BIG gulp air down into my lungs.
I am alive. He holds my hand, He rescues me from all circumstances.
Psalm 23
4 Even though I walk
through the darkest valley,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.

Forgiveness and Healing
"To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you" by Lewis B. Smedes.
Isaiah 61
The Year of the LORD’s Favor
1 The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners,
2 to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn,
3 and provide for those who grieve in Zion - to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.
They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the LORD for the display of his splendor.
Am on 40 Days of Love Campaign. This week will be on Love is forgiving... Looking forward to more insights from our young people!
