This weekend was amazing well atleast Friday was. On Friday I went to Lake Havasu with my youth group because we were having a special service called “WRECKED” and Allen Griffin ,who spoke at our Youth convention, was down from Florida again to speak. The message was on forgiveness. He was talking about how if we keep unforgiveness in our hearts, that we are imprisoning ourselves and the only person our unforgiveness is going to hurt is ourselves. So i’m not sure if I told any of you this but about 6 years ago I was in a really really bad car accident where a drunk driver hit us.My sister, and my mom, and I were all okay but the drunk drivers didn’t make it. In the accident I broke my leg in three places and my hand in four. Well six years later I am still having surgeries on my leg because my knee still bothers me sometimes and not to mention I was afraid to even ride in a car let alone drive one. I thought it was just fear from the accident but once I really looked at it and talked to God about it I realized I was holding unforgiveness in my heart towards the drunk drivers, and it scared me. The only person it was hurting was me because they aren’t alive anymore. So when they did an altar call I went up to be prayed for and as soon as I walked up he told me that I was afraid and that I need to forgive and ask God for peace in my heart. So I forgave them and the leaders started praying for me and asking for God’s peace to overflow in me and it wasn’t even a minute later that I just felt his peace just hit me and I dropped to the floor. After I got back up I still had that peace in my heart and I felt like weights had been lifted off my shoulders and I felt FREE! And on Sunday due to somethings that took place I had to drive home from the California side and I wasnt afraid at all I just felt his peace in my heart!!!


But I thought it was really AMAZING and I wanted to share with all of you. Well until next time see ya later! God Bless! Love ya all!

 

In Christ,

  1. THAT’S AWESOME!! Isn’t God peace so amazing and freeing. We all think that if we ask GOd for something his immediate reaction will be no, and somtimes I think yes. But it is in his perfect timing that we are able to do what we do, and have what we have. To experiance God, s a privaledge. We take for granted those moments that we ahve with him!
    Thank you for sharing Ashley!
