My New Found Freedom

Single?
In a  relationship?
Complicated?

You really can't tell how free a person can be unless you see them soar. But no matter how much freedom costs we shouldn't forget that true freedom is found once you learn to see things  the way Jesus did.

Many believe that freedom is doing what you want, finding your happiness and fighting for it. Honestly that's correct. It's proving that you can do anything. It's being who you want to be. It's looking at life the way you want and living it the way you planned it. But we always forget one thing, are we really free? Are we really free from pain? worry? sorrow? fear? trials? defeats? envy? jealousy? uncertainty?

Only by looking at life the way God has planned it to be shall we find peace. It isn't easy. Because though it was promised that we will find happiness in God, we will never be exempted to all the trials the world can throw at us. We are in this world, and in this world there will always be trails. There will always be people that would hurt us, situations that would test us and lead us at the brink of sanity. We can never tell what other things the world can throw at us. Though the world may seem such a bad place do remember that whenever we face more trials than usual, God's trusting us more (Isaiah 8:17).

There are many things that had happened in the past 4 months of 2012, trials and challenges. But one thing remains, I am enjoying my new found freedom through Christ. I know that through Him I will conquer anything (Mark 9:23), I will be wiser than my old self (James 3:18) and find my new real self (Colossians 3:7-14) that will live for one purpose, to live for God's glory. I am single at the moment, and yes I'm not ashamed to say it again. And while I wait for His provisions, I will serve my very purpose. Stand tall, stand proud for God!
