I'm Letting Go

I didn't come this far to give up!
I'm declaring that the last 2 weeks will be the most amazing conclusion to this season.
For the past eleven months I have seen God do miracles in my life and in the lives around me.
I came to Hillsong International Leadership College as a girl who loves Jesus, and I'm leaving as a woman who is passionate about seeing His Kingdom established around the world.
I am better equipped, more focused and extremely expectant for the seasons to come.
Even when circumstances are giving me every reason to back down, I will not!
My God is my my protector, provider, comforter, counselor, and best friend.
He is the beginning and the end, and so present in the in-between.
I've been changed. Changed so deeply that I myself cannot comprehend.

I feel so overwhelmed with a hunger for truth. For complacency to be shaken off, thrown away, and never chosen again. For believers to rise up and live according to the Word. For justice to become reality in every corner of this planet. For love to be spread unassumingly and selflessly across the globe. For families to be restored to their ultimate design. For churches to worry less about the method and more about the Message. For peace to reign in our hearts. For grace to capture us once again. For wisdom, compassion, and humility. For Jesus to be the center of it all.

So I'm letting go... 

"I’m Letting Go" -Francesca Battistelli 

My heart beats, standing on the edge
But my feet have finally left the ledge

Like an acrobat
There’s no turning back

I’m letting go
Of the life I planned for me
And my dreams
Losing control
Of my destiny
Feels like I’m falling and that’s what it’s like to believe
So I’m letting go

This is a giant leap of faith
Trusting and trying to embrace

The fear of the unknown
Beyond my comfort zone

Giving in to your gravity
Knowing You are holding me
I’m not afraid

Feels like I’m falling and that’s what it’s like to believe
Feels like I’m falling and this is the life for me

Love you all very much. Thank you for being a part of my life. I can't imagine it without you.
For those of you who I will see in 2 short weeks, I am so excited!
For those of you I will bid farewell, you'll always be my Australia family.

Most importantly, thank you Jesus. I can't do anything without you. I am so in love with you.
