For a long time, I thought that being a good Christian meant going to church and reading your bible. I really didn’t understand the depth of freedom that was possible, so I lived my life on the surface, but once I found out the truth and started to live it, God called me to be re-baptized, and I listened.

When you don’t know who you are in Christ, you’re bound to live life in a way that “seems” right but leads to spiritual darkness.

“Whispers Of Freedom”

Soft

Release His Kingdom from me

No excuse to live in bondage
No excuse to live in sin
No excuse to lose the fight
Cuz Jesus died for me to win

Do you hear His voice call out
Do you hear Him say your name
Do you look to Him to step
Or live your life as one big game

There’s a way to move
Inside His heart
There’s a way to listen
And do your part

Just hear His voice
And listen
