Lyrical Liz

Anyway...The last couple of months I have been going through an awkward alone time; well actually about the last couple of years. It has been a time where I have grown a lot in the Lord. Time after time the devil has attacked me, but I know more than ever that I am in the will of God. The last couple of months it seems as though my friends whom I have always leaned upon and thought had the same burden for the Lord, have been preoccupied with the things of this world. In the process while praying in confused frustration, the Lord has spoken to me that He would be taking me to another level and not everyone would come. It has been hard to look around and be so uncomfortable with all that is going on around me, because sometimes it seems I am the only one who is not selling out for the dead ends of temporary pleasures. I could go on about all the things negative that are going on in my life, but one day I laid it all before the Lord and started to sing a song that I was taught last tour, "Grateful." While singing it, instead of complaining about everything frustrating thing in my life, I began to be thankful realizing that one day it will all be worth the problems. Looking back on this tour, I have realized that God has raised me another level. I have had dreams and visions since I can remember and now thank God that everything in my life has been done in His perfect will. I feel as though many spiritual gifts have been renewed this tour. As the song says "I can't even rise, unless you raise me," God definitely has done something in me this tour and I feel as though something has been birthed inside me like never before. I want to thank you for always continuing to push in the spirit for more. You see and push for more than most do and you always push past the point of satisfaction on to much greater.
Thank you so much and I can't tell you how much of a blessing tour was in my life. It is just such an amazing revelation.
Thank you and In JESUS NAME. I pray God blesses you amazingly,
Liz Johnson
