Same Grace: The Moment I Began To Fall In Love With Jesus
Hello Lovelies,
The Lord has made it clear to me that this platform is not about me — it’s about Him. He has called me to use my voice to share my testimony, my obedience, and my walk with Christ so that His children can be pointed back to Him. My life, my story, my decisions, and even the parts that were painful to surrender are all for His glory. I don’t share to elevate myself or to make anyone follow my path; I share because God has asked me to, and because He deserves the honor for the transformation He has done in my life. Every post, every blog, every testimony has one purpose: to lead you back to Jesus.
When it comes to Greek life, I know this topic can be sensitive, so I want to approach it with the same grace God extended to me.
If I wanted to, I could sit here and give you every single reason why you should denounce as a child of God.
I could list the Scriptures.
I could explain the idolatry.
I could walk you through every detail.
But the truth is —
none of that is what brought me out of my sorority.
The real turning point was the moment I began to fall in love with Jesus — truly, deeply, personally.
It was intimacy with Him that led me out, not information.
Falling in Love With God Changed Everything
Before anything else shifted, God was drawing my heart back to Him.
And the Word says:
“Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you.” — James 4:8
As I drew near, He began showing me what pleased Him and what grieved Him.
My love for Him grew in a way I had never experienced before.
I began to know Him intimately — not just in theory, but in reality.
And from that love, obedience began to flow.
It wasn’t forced.
It wasn’t pressured.
It wasn’t fear-based.
It was love-based.
This is why I always say:
Information didn’t free me — intimacy did.
When God Removes the Scales, You Can’t Unsee
As my relationship with Him deepened, the scales started falling from my eyes.
Scripture says:
“The unfolding of Your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple.” — Psalm 119:130
Through that light, I started to see clearly:
what pleased the Lord
what didn’t
what was drawing me closer to Him
and what was pulling me away
My sorority was one of the things He revealed.
For the first time, I began to understand:
the idolatry hidden in plain sight
the spiritual roots I had never questioned
the status I unknowingly took pride in
the place in my heart where the organization slowly took the seat that belonged to Christ
And once the Lord revealed it —
I couldn’t unsee it.
Not because someone convinced me.
Not because I was pressured.
Not because of fear.
But because He showed me Himself, and everything else came into view.
Why I Share My Testimony — And What I Won’t Do
I want you to understand the heart behind MissToo Made It and God Is So Kind & Co.
My platform exists for one reason:
To point you to Christ.
To increase your knowledge of Him — because that is what saved me.
Yes, you will hear me share pieces of my testimony.
Yes, you will hear about my journey of denouncing.
Yes, you will hear what obedience has cost me.
But I need you to know:
I am not here to condemn you.
I am not here to shame you.
I am not here to rush your process.
Romans 8:1 says:
“There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.”
Conviction comes from God — not from me.
My testimony is meant to invite, not intimidate.
There are details I’m not released to share right now, and I’m being obedient to that.
I will only say what the Lord has me say in this season.
Before I go any further, I want to pause and sincerely apologize if anything I’ve shared in the past has come across as condemning, harsh, or judgmental. That was never my heart, and it was never my intention. I am learning, growing, and being refined in this area, and I recognize that sometimes zeal without maturity can be misunderstood. If I have said anything that made you feel attacked or pushed away, please hear me when I say I am sorry. My desire has always been to point you to Jesus, not to push you from Him. I pray you will receive this testimony with the love, grace, and humility in which it is being shared.
This Is Still Hard for Me — But God Is Keeping My Mouth
If I’m honest, this assignment has stretched me.
There are moments when my flesh wants to “go off,”
or speak out of frustration,
or say things in a tone that isn’t submitted to God.
But the Lord stops me:
“Not that.”
“Not yet.”
“Not like that.”
“Guard your heart.”
“Watch your tone.”
Psalm 141:3 says:
“Set a guard over my mouth, LORD; keep watch over the door of my lips.”
And that’s exactly what He’s been doing.
He’s still working on me.
He’s still maturing me.
He’s still refining places in me that rise up.
And as He works on me internally, He’s shaping how I share externally.
Everything I speak on this topic must reflect:
His love
His kindness
His grace
His truth
Because that is exactly what He showed me.
Obedience Is Costly — But It’s Beautiful
If you had told me years ago that following Jesus would cost me the things I loved most, I wouldn’t have believed it.
I never imagined I would surrender my sorority.
I never imagined I would walk away from what I once built my identity on.
But Jesus said:
“Whoever wants to be My disciple must deny themselves, take up their cross, and follow Me.” — Matthew 16:24
And sometimes denying yourself looks like letting go of the things you never thought you’d release.
Has it been costly?
Yes.
Has it been painful?
Absolutely.
Has it been worth it?
A thousand times yes.
Because on the other side of obedience, I have found joy, peace, clarity, and a closeness with God I never had before.
The Same Grace God Gave Me, I Extend to You
The Lord recently reminded me of where I started.
Of how gentle He was with me.
Of how patient He was as He opened my eyes.
Of how He never pressured me — He pursued me.
And that same grace…
that same patience…
that same kindness…
is what He has called me to reflect.
I’m here to love you.
To share the truth He revealed to me.
And to point you back to Him — not myself, not my story, not an agenda.
Just Him.
Because He is the One who saved me.
He is the One who freed me.
He is the One who opened my eyes.
He is the One who led me out.
And He can do the same for you — in His timing, in His way, through His Spirit.
Final Encouragement
If you feel the Lord tugging on your heart…
If you feel Him drawing you closer…
If you feel conviction or curiosity or confusion…
Don’t run from it.
Run to Him.
He is kind.
He is patient.
He is gentle.
And He will walk you through every step — just like He did for me.
My story isn’t about an organization.
It’s about a Savior.
And my prayer is that this testimony leads you not to judgment, not to fear, not to pressure —
but straight into the arms of Jesus.
With Love,
Jadesha M. Hair
