A day of surrender

Man... day 2 and they are NOT wasting time. One of our leaders, Andy Byrd is speaking this week. And boy is it absolutely incredible. He is such an unbelievable man of God who is SO anointed.

I wanted to type all about what we've been learning, but I don't even know how to regurgitate everything that has been poured into me over the last 2 days.. Just alot about surrendering everything to the Lord. and how intimacy without surrender is not intimacy at all.. At the end of class we were all worshipping and just declaring things that we were surrendering.. our plans, our personal desires, our comfort, our parents' ideas of success.. everything. It's alot harder to actually do than to say.. It's more of a thing of saying "Okay God, I surrender everything today. Now help me to continue to live it out tomorrow." And sometimes we feel that we are surrendering SO much and that we're giving up SO much.. but when you look at the amount we gain when we surrender everything it makes the surrender so sweet.. Ah glory Lord.

He also spoke today on just resting in the Lord. We're like little hyper-active 3 year olds. Our father adores us so much and just wants us to chill out and rest in His arms.. One of the greatest postures of revelation is rest. We need to feel grace and comfort to lie back into His arms. That would be such a place a restoration.

This is so jambled and all over the place.. It's so hard to express all the work God is doing on my heart. But I wanted to share atleast something
