You can cry abt:

The Shiz

and live in it.

Or

Use it to fertilize a new environment.

Sis, rise in spite of it.

This reminds me of the ultimate example of rising above adversity: Jesus’ resurrection.

Jesus surrendered to his call by allowing the lies, beating, mocking, and his death to occur.

Jesus was expected to stay in the grave and “misbehaved” when he got up with all power.

 “And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you.” Romans 8:11

Followers of Jesus, the same power that raised Jesus from the dead lives in you! It doesn’t matter what you’ve experienced – you are equipped to overcome & inspire others to do the same.

Let’s encourage each other to rise to the next level.

I’ll go first! Through Jesus, I’ve obliterated word curses that were spoken over me. Those poisonous seeds have been choked out (#cropfailure) by the truth of who God created me to be.
