i like stirring pots. especially religious ones.

About

Sometimes I have to remind myself of the life I led before pursuing the Kingdom of Heaven because my life has changed that drastically. I have had the privilege of experiencing things in just the past 3 years that I thought I would never encounter in a lifetime. I have moved from a place of mere existing into a life of profound awakening.

I do not believe the way I live my life is only for a select few. I don’t buy into that message. We are all created to do great things. I truly believe every human walking this earth is meant to have life abundant, and my heart is to see people walking out of the pigpen and into the great royal party!

I made a decision in 2007 to trade in the American dream for God’s dream. You see, I tried the worldly thing. Dabbled in the party scene. Lived the self-indulgent life. None of it worked. The drugs didn’t work. The relationships didn’t work. Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior didn’t even work. And yes, I did try all these things in attempt to fill a life I had made that was void of anything really worth mentioning.

But my Heavenly Father saw past my shortcomings. He saw past the world’s perception of who Allison Schwartz is. He saw past the girl I was and called out the woman I would become.

Now, nothing can stand in my way.

I know who I am. I know I was born to release things greater than what our natural mind can conceive. With this heartbeat, my aim is to see earth look just like Heaven. I have been around the world and the greatest thing I take away from my experiences is that we all want to be outrageously loved and feel like our lives have some sort of purpose. I want to be that person who loves on people and calls that greatness out of them.

I believe it’s time to unlock the biggest secret the church has kept hidden for hundreds of years: that it is possible to experience Heaven here and now, not just after this lifetime. I’m here to shatter the sweet bye and bye mentality. We were made to bask in the glory of God, on earth, just as it is in Heaven.

I will waste my life to release this cadence. This is the sound of my heart. It’s why I write. It’s why I go to the nations. It’s why a complacent life just won’t satisfy.

And so, my musings on this site are an attempt to break down the religious walls we’ve placed around the Kingdom. Every thought and revelation comes from my own relationship with my Papa (although I may share someone else’s heart every now and then).

It is personal. It is real. It is my heart. It is me.
