"It was for FREEDOM. Not so we'd worship Him. Not so we'd obey Him. Not even so we'd love Him. For freedom. That alone was the purpose of Him freeing us: just so we would be free. That's what real Love looks like."
Matt Pandel
"It was for freedom that Christ set us free."
Galatians 5:1
God is not a God who puts restraint and pressure on us. He is a God who takes away restrictions and burdens. His way is not that of human performance systems, where you have to behave to earn acceptance or else get rejected. His way is the way of grace and freedom. We are truly free to do anything and know we are still loved, accepted and in perfect friendship with God. He wants nothing from us. He just wants to see us live freely, knowing we are loved.
A thought: Christ wants me to enjoy being free!
