A Fresh Kiss Planted on My Heart

Long past due for an update-But here is what the Lord has been tenderizing my heart with...

This weekend was SUCH a refresher! The Burn Internship family went to Powhatan this last Saturday to the home of our fellow core group leader brother, Tim. :) God reawakened the His father heart to me. Through a father figure, He really told me a lot of the things that I needed to hear. And also, during class yesterday, the Lord opened up some wounds that I've held in. He told me the only way to have them healed is to know His heart as a Father.

I've gotten at least 3 words on being a butterfly and how this new season I'm in is like a butterfly breaking out of her cocoon. I learned that the only way a butterfly gets her strength is through breaking through the shell of the cocoon. If she is helped out, then she will die. The butterfly is a picture of where I am right now. It's hard, but bearable, but challenging at the same time. God has been speaking to me through Psalm 73...He is the strength of my heart & my portion forever.....

Lastly, He is encouraging me to express the heart He has formed & is forming in me. I have something to offer because He has given me. I tend to lean toward holding words in; used to holding in my thoughts. But not anymore, God is going to give me confidence in His love.

May His love be awakened,
Eva
