"I will be a Father to you,
and you will be my sons and daughters,
says the Lord Almighty."
- 2 Corinthians 6:18
I went to Crossroads this past weekend. Most amazing experience of my life!!!! I wish I could say everything that happened and all the amazing things that made the weekend a surprise! If I did though, it wouldn't be a surprise for anyone else...so I'll keep quiet. BELIEVE me!!! That's not easy for me to do at all... <3 It's not that it's some big top secret what goes on at Crossroads or anything like that. Trust me, if you knew all the things that went down and you went on a weekend like this it wouldn't be the same then because you would know what's happening. Ugh I hope that makes sense... LOL <3 Just know that it was amazing and I would recommend Faith Walk, Crossroads, Discipleship Walk, and anything else like this to anyone who wants to grow closer to God then they ever have before!!!!!
I payed for the trip myself, and then had many bad days that turned into two horrible weeks back to back to back. =( Thursday rolled around and I decided I didn't want to go anymore. Friday rolled around and I still didn't want to go. Friday afternoon I gave in and decided to pack up and get away for the weekend. Truly, that's all I wanted. I wanted to get far away from everything. THAT feeling didn't last though. <3 God had plans...
Long story short, I encountered God and felt SO close to Him for the first time in months! He LOVES me!!!! L-O-V-E-S me! He knows what's going on and He CARES!!! And he cares about you and He loves you and everyone else on this earth!!!!!! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
If I could say in two words what God taught me this weekend is that God's love is unconditional and that after He's forgiven you, and you have to forgive yourself. Love and Forgiveness. I experienced the best type of love ever...love from God!!!! I've always known He loved me, but He loves me SO much!!!!!!! And I never thought about it before! It didn't fully click until this weekend. I've never been weeping at how much He loves me, but this weekend I did!!!! He loves you SO much! He loves your friends and family SO much!
I've been holding on to SO much lately. I gave it all to Him. I mean ALL of the stuff I've been holding onto is gone. G-O-N-E!!!!! He's taken it and thrown it away somewhere. All I need is Him!!! I know that He's forgiven me and that I've forgiven myself. I know that I love Him SO much and that He loves me even more! It's crazy amazing!!!!
This weekend was incredible. I don't have a word to describe how I feel STILL!!!! It was THE MOST amazing experiance of my life. I can not wait to volunteer for it next year!!!!!!!!!
