I am identified with Christ.

I was just laying in bed. Marvelling at the freedom I feel after having said goodbye to mom.

Or rather, goodbye to EXPECTATION. I no longer beat the whip, toe the line, pull myself up by my bootstraps, trying to win.

I have ALREADY won. I won, the day Christ died, then rose, for MY sake.

ALL, now goes there.

ALL:

Sin.

Despair.

Failure.

Hope.

Hopelessness.

Loss.

Fear.

Doubt.

Anger.

Isolation.

ALL is laid there. At the foot of The Cross.

Arising, we receive:

Hope.

Joy.

Love.

Friendship.

Purpose.

Salvation.

Freedom.

Fellowship.

Peace.

Redemption.

A bit ago, it was on my heart to share som words, via text, with my sis. The words touched me so I wanted to share them with a few others. It was on me to share them with you, beloveds. Verbatim I said:

I am identified with Christ. My identity is no longer that of a hard worker. Yes I work hard. Yet I do so not to win recognition or affirmation or love. GOD loves me. GOD affirms me. GOD is there for me. Regardless of effort or outcome. I am loved. I AM loved. Therefore I can and DO love. Beginning with me. Extending to others. ALWAYS loving Him. If none go with me. If none be for me. God loves, protects, sees, is there for, cares for, shall never leave, me. My heart is full. Free from fear. Full of care. God is good to me. Just HAD to praise Him and praise His Name and all He has done.

‘Nuff said!

Be encouraged, as I am.

I love me some you. Love me back, wouldja please and thanks? 😎

His servant and your friend,

Cassandra
