Freedom

"Freedom", a strong word when truly understood. There are many of us who claim to want freedom but still allow ourselves to be "shackled" to something/someone that brings us pain/failure. Relationships, debt, crime, dead end jobs, lack of education are just a few things that keep us from "true" freedom. Most of us think freedom is purely physical but it's so much more. The Israelites were physically freed but they maintained a slave mentality. They truly didn't understand the power God had given them. A lot of us live the same way, with an "enslaved" mind. We won't experience true freedom until we practice/learn to sacrifice. You're afraid to marry the one you love, you're afraid to go back to school for higher education, you're afraid to tell your non productive friends that you have a life, you're afraid to tell your family that you need a change, you're afraid to give 100% on your job, you're afraid to excel in high school because it's not cool and you're afraid to admit that you'd rather be in a real relationship as opposed to running these streets. I could go on and on. Please understand that if you're living in/with any kind of bondage, you are not free. God's word/will is the key to unlocking all the doors. TeamLetMyPeopleGo bblessedloveyou
