True Freedom

“Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom” — 2 Corinthians 3:17.

Do you sense that freedom? Freedom that comes only when God is involved. The freedom to speak about what God is doing in your life? I’ve experienced it, and there is no comparison to anything else on earth. I’ve also known bondage — bondage to man’s rules and regulations, bondage to feverishly trying to win another person’s approval and love. Relief may come, but usually is temporary.

God’s freedom is boundless. His love is unconditional. When I mess up by not seeking his wisdom or approval, I’ve felt disappointment in my soul. And so did God during those times. He gave me life, and he continues to bless me with seen and unseen blessings. Why do I even consider giving him anything but my best? What can I give God today?
