The End

And so it begins.


I'm going to try and blog regularly, because I feel like I don't write enough. There is a lot of stuff the comes in and out of my mind, both good and bad, and I feel that if I could get it all down it might be worth something (not cash, Johnny). Remember, it's 2:28. Also remember, I've been moving/working all day.

Will write something more in-depth tomorrow, hopefully. However, I will leave you with this.


---And remember, if you were a slave when the Lord called you, you are now free in the Lord. And if you were free when the Lord called you, you are now a slave of Christ----1 Corinthians 7:22 (NLT)

I thought about this verse today while I was driving, and it gave me cold chills. This one, I later found out, goes right along with it.

---Don't you know that when you offer yourselves to someone to obey him as slaves, you are slaves to the one whom you obey—whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness? But thanks be to God that, though you used to be slaves to sin, you wholeheartedly obeyed the form of teaching to which you were entrusted. You have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness.---Romans 6:16-18


I love the idea that, being a slave to Jesus is more freeing than being a free person in the world.
