Marked by God

A word from the heart of God: Marked by God.

I heard a pastor say, “Once you’ve been exposed, you cannot be unexposed.” This can refer to holiness as well as sin. When I experienced the loss of my two boys within a 30-day period, I felt like I died as well. Their deaths led me to a full surrender to God, by choice, because I honestly couldn’t breathe a natural breath. I threw myself at God’s feet and asked Him to breathe for me. The next few months and years that followed have truly exposed the holiness of God in such a tangible place in my life, and once I was exposed to it, I believe I was marked by it. I believe that God can use any circumstance in a person’s life to draw them closer to Him and awaken something beautiful within them. Your suffering, your trauma, your pain, and even your betrayal — if you allow it — can leave a holy mark on your heart. A mark for all to see! Do not run from pain; instead, run towards a shared breath with the Lord and I promise you He will breathe for you until you can breathe on your own again. Being exposed to holiness will mark you by God for the rest of your life.

You are loved, Kris
