Freedom Granted By God

The Bible teaches that God is completely in control of what happens in history and yet he exercises that control in such a way that human beings are responsible for their freely chosen actions and the results of those actions. Human freedom and God’s direction of historical events are therefore completely compatible. To put it most practically and vividly.”

“In many areas of life, freedom is not so much the absence of restrictions as finding the right ones, the liberating restrictions. Those that fit with the reality of our nature and the world produce greater power and scope for our abilities and a deeper joy and fulfillment. Experimentation, risk, and making mistakes bring growth only if, over time, they show us our limits as well as our abilities. If we only grow intellectually, vocationally, and physically through judicious constraints.”

When you release the notion that you just exist by some sheer will and know that you were perfectly and wonderfully made to be of service to humanity, life takes on a whole new meaning. It’s just that simple!!!!!

Inspiration and motivation come from within and proceed outwardly. You truly are what you eat. Digest, eat the meat and spit out the bones. Everything in life is not your fit. Know thyself and too thy oneself be true!!
