Years ago I had the privilege of attending my junior high school reunion. I had so much fun! It was interesting to get caught up with people I hadn’t seen in almost 20 years.
Most people I knew had grown up to become successful, happy people. However there were a few I heard about that (not surprisingly) had become alcoholics and drug addicts.
One classmate began using drugs excessively right out of high school as a way of defiantly expressing his freedom from authority. It was sad to think that he slowly became enslaved to the very thing he used to express his freedom.
Evil seems to promise freedom too, but in the end it only cripples and destroys. It is in Christ that we are free from the things that bind us. It is only when every day is surrendered to Him that we find true freedom. That's all I will say about that for now.
If the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed
John 8:36
