I haven’t been able to fully wrap my head around Passion Conference 2024. Seeing 55,000 students on fire for the Lord, physically tired but going all in for Jesus was something I’ve never seen before. In the world that we live in, it’s easy to hide and not share the good news of Jesus Christ and the indescribable peace and freedom we have in Him. But why would we be ashamed of the gospel if we truly believe in the unwavering truth of Jesus? He shows up. He is constant. He always answers prayers, though not always in the way we expect. He heals. He saves. He provides. He is intentional. The list goes on and on. Our God has no limits and He works through everything. Every moment and every encounter. When Jesus died on the cross so that we could live the life we were created to live, the power of the cross set us free and gave us a life beyond our pasts. God always makes a way. He works through our hardships and creates new things. Let God have your unreserved yes. While the whole of Passion Conference was like nothing I’ve ever experienced, the last morning hit me hard. Standing on the floor in awe of how God moved through thousands of college students and the door holders that gave up their sleep and their time. Every single seat in that room and every person was prayed for. Everything being so intentional, just like God is with us, is amazing. The last morning, even though there were thousands of people worshipping, it felt like it was just God and me in the room. For months I’ve felt as if I’ve messed up so bad that God wouldn’t accept me. I don’t know why I believed it. In the middle of worshipping our Holy God, I looked over and saw my grandmother, Sue Mitchell, worshipping the Lord right next to me. It’s been almost a year since she passed and I just know that she was praising the Lord right then and that she still is now. That is when I decided to truly run back to the Father and give him my unreserved yes. Like Isaiah 43:18-19 says, my past mistakes do not define me and God is working through those mistakes. I am not ashamed of Jesus Christ. I am not ashamed of the gospel. He has my unreserved yes.
