Walls

So, everyone knows that in any thing we do there is bound to be a wall. I think this week I have hit a few of them. I have been trying to ram my way through and ending up feeling beaten and bruised. What do you do when you are approaching that wall and the only way around it is to go straight through? I have a great support team who does not let me get to the wall and just give up, which has been my pattern, they make me run full force into it and keep running out the other side. I just want to continually thank my team for not letting me give up at those walls.

This week has been a big wall week for me. I am working through a big sin issue that has held me captive for many years and can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. During my walks I have been striving to move faster and jog longer so that I can continue to move up in the mileage again. Just when I think I can't go any farther there is the helping voice of a friend pulling me along.
Also, this Sunday, Easter, I am being baptized. This is something I have been think about for many months now and finally with the help of God, my pastor, and my team I am ready to make a new declaration of who God is making me to be. The only thing I am nervous about is giving my testimony in front of the church. But I know that God will give me the right words and I am doing this as an act of obedience to my Savior.

Christ died for my sins so I am free to share what he is doing in my life.

"Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were buried therefore with him by baptized into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised for the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in the newness of life." Romans 6:3-4


God bless you all! Have a wonderful Easter celebrating what our Lord has done for us!
