Share Your Stories

**Sit quietly, eyes closed and in silence for one minute before reading.**

“Come and hear, all you who fear God, and I will tell what He has done for my soul.” Psalm 66:16

    Many of us have stories of healing, redemption, transformation. We carry stories of God’s miraculous work in our lives. He has done great things for our souls and we hesitate to share the stories.

    When you share the stories, you offer others a little bit of faith. So many are pummeled by doubt of Who God is and His power. As you tell others the stories of what God has done for your soul you remind them of Who God is and you offer courage.

    Stories of transformation are contagious and offer courage. How will you encourage another today by telling them what God has done for you?

“For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do no submit again to a yoke of slavery.” The Apostle Paul, The Bible

    Anything but grace alone is grace +. Grace plus ____. We live our lives under grace and add laws to ensure us of our spirituality and spiritual state before God. For some reason we are drawn to working for something rather than receiving something. We are wired to believe that what you put in you get out. One of the things that Jesus Christ does when we trust Him is that He changes this hard-wiring. Because of Christ we stand on grace not on works. 

    Yet … we need help with the habit. We need help being transformed and moved out of this daily habit that our hearts, minds and bodies know as natural. We have been in slavery and Christ is calling us to freedom. It takes adjustment and the more we follow Him, the more it gets adjusted.

    Live into grace, into freedom and into the transformation that God promises.
