Wow... I um... The Holy spirit is soo thick in this room right now. I don't think I am ready for this, but here it goes! I was in the car and God was really speaking to me , about how so many times I feel like hardly anybody understands. They don't know how I feel about Jesus. These post aren't emotion or another one of Tyler's freakish, AHAHAHAAAAHAHHHH!!! JESUS!!!!!! Post. Jesus is doing something guys, He is real! Not just for me... John 17:24 says "Father, I desire that those whom You gave Me will be with where I am, That they may behold my glory, which You have given me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the earth." Thats pretty amazing. I suggest you read verses 20-26, to get a much deeper meaning behind what I am trying to say. Look guys, you are not going to find encounter with God through me, or what I say. It is only through Christ Love!!! If you read those verses, you now know (because of scripture, not what I say) That JESUS LOVES YOU JUST AS MUCH AS GOD LOVED THE SON!!!! His only begotten Son... Aahhh I dont even know where I am going with this. Okay... Ephesians 1:4-5... If you dont have your Bible with you, then you wont get very much out of this, because then its what Tyler says, but what He says! So, You were chosen... got that straight? Good. He LOVES YOU!!! I cannot stress that enough. BTW! News flash! Please test everything I say against THE BIBLE! ... None of its wrong... Haha! =) So... Ahhh.... I have no I dea what I am saying! Jesus COME!!! Your Life is hidden in Christ. You are set apart! Different... PERFECT! You are pure through the Blood! (1 John) Cool...
You guys realize, I mess up... a lot... and its ok...
Its all just words unless you know Him... Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness... So, If I din't have my life completely wrecked by God... This wouldn't mean anything. Yes I would be like cool, yeah, I agree with all that. It wouldn't mean anything... at all...
HERES MY POINT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It would just be words, It would just be another song, it would just be another day, it would just be another Bible verse, I would just be another person, He would just be another God... Unless I knew Him. Unless something made me different....
Thats my heart. Thats why I spend the time to type this up. Thats why I say "Weird things" BECAUSE I AM DIFFERENT!!!! His blood makes me different! It makes me CLEAN!! It makes me PURE!!!!!!! It makes me LOVELY!!!! IT MAKES ME HIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (once again Tyler going off on his rants...) This is real....
He is real......
If you read this whole thing... then I hope you got something out of it. Ask me questions. Btw, I am not re-reading it, so there could be a few errors. ;)

No shame.
I had a wonderful day, a wonderful week for that matter! Yet here I am, looking over what God has done in me, and this shame begins to rise up. This condemnation telling me I'm really not all that good, and without Him I'd be in a slough. That's right. Without my Daddy I would be in a terrible mess! Thank You Papa for Your love and mercy!!!
Yet, the accusations still come. Accusations that I'm only faking this, or that I really don't have what it takes to be His chosen minister to His lost children, or that my task He's given me to do is less important than someone else's, or that I'm not equipped enough, or I don't know how to listen to Him well enough, the list goes on and on.
But my best friend Jesus is the Word. And the Word says: "(Romans 8:1) [There is] therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. 2. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death."
Also, later in the chapter is says: "(Romans 8:31) What then shall we say to these things? If God [is] for us, who [can be] against us? 32. He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? 33. Who shall bring a charge against God's elect? [It is] God who justifies. 34. Who [is] he who condemns? [It is] Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. 35. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? [Shall] tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36. As it is written: 'For Your sake we are killed all day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.' 37. Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. 38. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39. nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
Done. And done. Shame is defeated.
Now, don't go and just hope against hope that it won't come back. It doesn't have the authority to stay in you, because you are dead, and His life is in you! Literally!!! Look up Galatians 2:20 if you don't believe me!
But your feelings are just that. Feelings. They are not reality, they should not be your beliefs, they cannot be the standard by which you live your life! The Spirit of life in Christ has made me FREE from the law of sin and death! I don't have to live out of the pain that I feel! I don't have to live out of the shameful things I did in the past, or even the present and future! I don't have to be a slave! I can have fullness of JOY!!! I can worship Him without fear of dying! I AM worthy to be in His presence!

I know, right? How can I, a sinner, be worthy to be in His perfect, holy presence?
Well, just look up Collossians 1:21-22.

I'm serious guys, you need to get this message straight from Him, not from a post online. So if you haven't read it yet, do it now.
...
Okay, did you hear that? You are holy before... the Holy One of Israel. Whoa. Jesus' blood must have worked! You are worthy to come into the presence of Almighty, Most Holy, Just, Righteous, God. And He wants you to come into the holiness of His presence! That's why HE TORE THE VEIL! That's why He poured out His wrath on Jesus! Because HE LOVES YOU!!!
If we understand this, by supernatural revelation, shame will not even be something we remember very well. It's hard to be ashamed when you know you're loved!
So, be blessed, be encouraged, be strengthened with boldness and courage to fight this one out for love! And may God bless you with peace that passes ALL understanding, and joy inexplainable in His presence!

You are Enough
There's no place I can go
that's outside of Your embrace.
There's no pain too cold
to turn my heart from Your face.
There's no valley too dark
to blind my eyes from Your hope.
There's no storm too strong
to steer my gaze from Your throne.
