...as a place of love and forgiveness. As I kneel there again, Jesus comes and stands beside me with his hand on my shoulder, his tears mingling with mine. Love. Forgiveness.
Yesterday it happened again. The sudden insight, as though a lightbulb went on in my head. All these years, that's what has been happening. A vow made. A stronghold. Unforgiveness.
But as I knelt at the foot of the cross, confessed my sin and felt God's forgiveness, in an instant, it was gone. I was free! Happy! Loved! Forgiven!
And Jesus bent down, looked me in the eye and said, "Arise, my daughter, to walk in newness of life!"
"The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they (YOU) may have life, and have it to the full." John 10:10
