It is worth doing the long, hard, and painful work of learning to walk in the freedom that is ours in Christ.
There’s nothing like the peace that comes with freedom, or the joy that comes from pleasing God and not needing the approval of people.
“I know now, Lord, why you utter no answer. You are yourself the answer. Before your face questions die away. What other answer would suffice?”

We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink & sex & ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he can’t imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased
Saw a motivational poster that said “no negative thoughts allowed”
It should read “negative thoughts are allowed but you aren’t allowed to attach yourself to them...so let them go when they arise”
