Yay for the Fourth of July, cookouts, flag cakes, fireworks and anything red, white and blue! So before you set out on your day of freedom festivities, take a couple minutes to read this post. You won't regret a second of it!
It is the blogging debut of Danielle Elizabeth Barr (DBarr, my buddy). You will love her writing. She lets you see right into her crazy wonderful life and beautiful heart.
Hello.
I’m not good with words. Or grammar. And my posts probably
won’t be long. But I do love Jesus and want to share that joy and what He is
doing in my life.
REDEEMED. Go take
a gander at that up in Webster’s and prepare your brain. Now apply that to
yourself and be blown away. You’ve been redeemed
by the King of the Universe – bought and paid for in full by the blood of
His son. Yes, YOU. DANG. That goes hard when you think about it and it’s
almost overwhelming.
I was in awe when I really studied what it meant to be
redeemed. I had always heard the word, but never really understood it. How
could the Lord of Lords love a consistent sinner like myself enough to die for
ME. And THEN to think I’m complete in Him and that my debt is done away with. I cannot do anything to
earn His grace or approval, but it’s been given
to me as a daughter – His daughter, whom He is jealous for. Wowzers. Stew on
that for a while.
Okay, that is all.
~Danielle
