I shared a few days ago about “Another Step To Freedom”. There was more GOD wanted me to know about how far I have come. And GOD revealed it in a crazy way.
Lilie went to this concert with me. On the day of the concert I mentioned to her that I was really wanting a tshirt but I knew that it was best for me to not get one because I need to save as much money as I can for my apartment.
She did not say anything and I did not think anything else about it. When we got to the concert she had gone to the concession area with her friends. Well when she came back she threw a tshirt at me. I was super encouraged at the fact she bought me a tshirt. But it got deeper quick.
As I unfolded the shirt that is when it all hit me as I read the shirt
“FIGTHER*SURVIVOR*RISER.
I started getting so emotional. That shirt was more than a concert shirt. It was personal. It was a badge of honor. I have always thought of myself as a Fighter and a survivor. But never thought of myself as a riser.
But that is exactly what I am.
I have risen from the storm that I have been caught in.
I have risen from the ashes of of the disaster I made it through
I tried to contain myself. But I ended up having to walk away from Lilie and her friends to take a moment to pray and get myself together.
Thank you Father GOD for the gentle reminders that you give me to let me know how far I have come.
To GOD Be The GLORY. Take Care. Much Love
