step into freedom to step forward

Stepping Into Freedom

Friends, freedom and purpose go hand-in-hand.   In 2014, Jesus revealed to me in such a new, fresh way that there was FREEDOM in Christ. At the end of 2016, He did it all over again.   I slowly began to realize that not claiming freedom, whatever it be from, was holding me back from moving forward, moving forward and STEPPING INTO things had for me.   Being so stuck in a repetitive, condemning, people-pleasing thought process was pulling me back from stepping into anything else. Not embracing FREEDOM was chaining me down. And when you’re chained down, it’s hard to notice, well, anything else but those chains.   It’s even more difficult to step into anything else, anything new, anything forward, anything God could be calling us to step into.  
  While I believe there’s purpose in every season, and believe it or not, there was a purpose for me in my season of feeling un-free (I learned a LOT), I was able to see and understand purpose more and more as I claimed the freedom there is in Christ.   And friend, there is freedom in Christ. He sets us free from ANYTHING and EVERYTHING that holds us.   So, if you need the reminder, like it turns out I often do, let go of what you need to let go of. It’s O.K. to release and to move forward into Christ. There is power in God to be set free, let God set you free.   And move forward. Step into the things He has in front of you as you let go of what’s behind and holding you down.   Embrace freedom and step into the purposes ahead.
      Much love,   Meg
