Free!

"The basic test of freedom is perhaps less in what we are free to do than in what we are free not to do." Eric Hoffer
   
God is a marvelous and wonderful God. He created, for us, the heavens and the earth to show forth his glory. Then, he made man in his own image, and made him a free moral agent, Free. We are free to choose to live an abundant life. We are free to accept or reject God's greatest offering, his only begotten Son, who died on a cruel cross to save us. We are free to give up fun in the world for joy in the Holy Ghost.     
True freedom comes from accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.  When we come to him and accept him as Lord and Savior, it becomes our desire to be pleasing to him. We find ourselves chosing peace and life over sin and death.

We have the freedom to no longer live in sin and degradation. We are free to live a life hid in Christ. Free to live eternally, and to rule and reign with our beloved Savior. The only thing we have to give up is misery and death.
   
The choice is clear to me.

"So if the Son liberates you-makes you free men-then you are really and unquestionably free."  John 8:36 Amp
  
Have a great day; and remember who and Whose you are.

"Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy."
