You Are Free To...
Contributed by Shawn Drake on Mar 20, 2021 (message contributor)
I was thinking about my niece who just got her 1st car. While my memory may be deteriorating, I remember how awesome it was to have my 1st car. While I loved that old car, it gave me an attitude that got me in trouble more than once. I began to think that I was grown, and I could do whatever I wanted to do. My parents would remind me that was their car, running on their gas, and insured by them. Their favorite statement, (which was mine later with my kids) was- “When you are out of my house and paying for your own stuff, then you are free to do whatever you want to do”. That is what Paul is telling us. Christians, each of us are free to live for Christ or live for ourselves.
