I am ex-UPC but wish in many ways I was still UPC. I certainly don't regret my training or teaching or having been exposed to some of the most wonderful Godly people that you'll ever meet this side of heaven.
I'm thankful for having been taught to live a life of sold-outness and consecration that has kept me in good stead through the years.
I thought tonight as I stood leading a meeting of women and seeing the power and presence of God move among us like I've never seen since we came here how grateful I am for the wonderful example of anointed powerful leadership I've had through the years and for the opportunity of having known what real true anointing and moving of the Holy Ghost is and know how to sense that and move with it.
My past has been richly textured and blessed because of my UPC heritage and whatever happens in the future .... all the good things that I know are ahead .... will be partly a result of reaping a good harvest because of what was sown into us by wonderful men and women through the years.
Yes, I'm ex-UPC but it will always be a part of me and who I am and I'm not even the slightest bit hesitant or reluctant to say that.
