There are many times I find myself looking back at the person I was just a few short years ago and marveling at all of the world’s lies that I allowed myself to believe. I deluded myself into thinking I needed to be “liberated” in order to fulfill my full “potential.” At the time I could not see what was really going on, but I can see it clearly now- rather than become free, I became a slave. A slave to my desires, to material goods, to food, to reckless fun, and a slave to my selfish, sinful nature. Not only was I a slave, but I was also a shirker. Responsibilities were placed on the backburner, unless they could help me achieve what I wanted, of course! As I rode around and around on this crazy non-stop ride, I honestly thought I was free.
