Her Christmas message to her fans
I have a pretty high standard for myself, which tends to lead to a real independence/pride thing. thinking i possess exclusively God-like qualities. Or believing in the illusion that I have even the smallest inkling of perfection or control. Thinking I can save the world and everyone in it.
–
And then God humbles me. Allowing me to “mess up big”. making me painfully aware and familiar with the state of my heart. which is inherently sinful.
–
And then once he humbles me, he reminds me that He is God and I am not. He reminds me that He sent his son to save me and that I did absolutely nothing to deserve this. but because His love exceeds all things I now have life. and not just life but life ABUNDANTLY.
–
And then when I give in to the shame and self loathing that sin often carries in with it, He tells me to get off the floor and LIVE the free life that he has given to me. The free life his son died on a cross for. He gives me permission to grab ahold of today, to walk with my head held high.
–
“Hand it over and walk freely, Lena. I’m not unaware of the darkness within you. That’s literally why I came”. Merry Christmas y’all. My challenge to myself this upcoming year is to live and love like I’m free, because I am.
