Karen Johnson,
“Thank you Anca for sharing your insight. My family was very patriarchal — and my sister and I were convinced that it was for our good. But the Lord has been faithful to reveal His best plans. Jane’s PowerPoint shows a clear view for us. We wish you were here with us in person. It’s good to “meet” you online.”
It’s good to meet you too, all of you!
I’m really glad the Lord has and is setting you free from patriarchy. Jane’s slides and writings have the anointing of the Lord on them.
Jesus died to set us free! Christians often say that phrase but most don’t believe that free means free. Instead, it becomes just a religious phrase that they use. I’m realizing more and more that it takes a free spirit and heart in the Lord for God to be able to work through us with maximum potential.
Liberty in the Lord is so important because it produces joy, and life, and love. It is from that wellspring of joy, love, and life that we can give to others in abundance. Patriarchy is like a damn because it holds back the rivers of living waters that are supposed to flow from our belly.
