I've been a Christian all my life, yet somehow I missed out on the glory of forgiveness.
I've been striving to be a good girl, while missing out on what righteousness really is.
In the past few months, after 27 years of being that good girl, I walked away from the things I knew were right and gave away many things that were precious in the sight of God. Things that were also precious to me. My heart. My integrity. My body.
It was nothing it promised to be. Empty treasure boxes, stolen gems. I wrestle daily with my vandalism of myself.
But two words now characterize my very life. Those words?
Forgiveness. Righteousness.
Most importantly,
HIS forgiveness and HIS righteousness.
