How are you doing, Friend?
Do you believe it’s possible to do the right thing for the wrong
reasons? Love without freedom isn’t real love. You might be following
the letter of the law but miss the spirit when your heart isn’t in your
actions.
God’s standard is freedom. He wants us to want to follow His
instructions. But no one is perfect. The law He provides shows us how
our hearts fall short of having pure motives. Following orders under
strict obligation misses the mark.
Obligation Results In External Motivation
Freedom Results In Internal Motivation Relationships Need Freedom
Relationships Need Boundaries
