Psalm 119:45 (NIV) - "I will walk about in freedom, for I have sought out your precepts." God's ways are not restrictive, but liberating. When you understand that God's Word is not meant to bind or confine you or deprive you of good things, you are enabled and empowered to live in the fullness of who God has created you to be and walk in total freedom. God's words are not to be viewed as strict rules, regulations, commandments, "do not do this or that orders" that deprive you of enjoying life fully. Rather, they teach us to understand and respect God's ways - His perfect perspective - that brings us into alignment with the unique way that He has designed us. We are free to choose to the best that God has to offer us - the freedom to love, serve, and be a blessing to those He has placed in our lives. When we seek God and His Kingdom first, our priorities can then be placed in proper order and we can then freely give ourselves to pleasing God and living for Him. This is true freedom!
