Last night as I was trying to slip into dream land, the Holy Spirit hit me with some insight into my own heart when it came to my past and where He has brought me in the past season. I couldn’t help but be filled with joy at the love of His mercy in rescuing me from myself in so many ways.  I was my own messiah (in a very subtle & deceptive way).  As truth has...
