You Are More....

As I was driving to the store this morning one of my favorite songs came on KLOVE, "You Are More." I feel like that could be my song. It's as if I could have written it. It starts with "There's a girl in the corner, with tear stains on her face", yes I was her! Note I said WAS her, past tense. God is so awesome, he took me from that place and really transformed me. I tried really hard to hide, but man, you just can't hide from God. "How did I get here?, I'm not who I once was." Through my three years of living in the pit, I often asked myself that same question. I wondered could God really return me to "who I once was?" I can say he has not only returned me to who I once was, but he has actually made me into a better version of my former self. I am not saying this because I am arrogant, I just know what God has done. "But don't you know who you are, what's been done for you?" I can now say, "I know who I am in Christ and what He has done for me." "Cause this is not about what you've done, But what's been done for you." It's not about my past or anybody's past for that matter!!! It's about what's been done for us on the cross!!!!! "You are more than the choices that you've made, you are more than the sum of your past mistakes, you are more than the problems you create, YOU'VE BEEN REMADE." That just sums it up. I know I have been remade and I want everyone to feel the freedom that I feel. I realize that it doesn't matter how bad you mess up, there is a God that forgives. Sometimes we are our own worst critics, but when you listen to the words in this song you realize, "You've been remade." I never want to forget what God has done for me; after all I've been remade:)
