At the very start of my journey with Jesus I was given a dream. I saw Jesus standing on water. Stretching His arms out to either side of Him He said to me, “I am The Way. The way is through me”. Then a shepherd appeared between us, and he started waiving his staff at me to follow him saying, “Come on, come on, now is the time!” What I knew in this dream was that I had to literally go through Jesus, as though he was a doorway or a tunnel… a passthrough. I had to step into Jesus. I also knew that I was to put other people through him as well. I knew that as I stepped into Jesus, I was to grab people and bring them into Jesus with me.
Stepping into Jesus is not at all what I first imagined it to be. In Matthew 16:24-25, Jesus says, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.” I have come to understand that our life is an opportunity for transformation, should we choose to accept it. To die as one thing (the image of the world), and to come alive unto something else (the image of Christ).
My hope in creating this blog is to share what I learn in my own personal development in being made into the image of Christ and discovering the heart of God and inspire to you pursue deeper connection with the One who created you. He loves and cherishes you and longs for deep connection with you. There is no end to the depths of His love, and He invites all of us to step into Jesus and step into the reality we were always meant to experience.
