free

This weekend we were driving to Tulsa. Claire was not happy to be in her car seat for that long. When we got to the hotel, I unbuckled her. Instead of jumping out, she just sat there…still crying. She had been so frustrated with being trapped in the seat, that she didn’t notice the freedom I offered her.

Hmm. She is a lot like me. I get trapped in sin that becomes a stronghold. But instead of reaching for the freedom that God offers me I continue to cry…trapped. All Claire had to do was acknowledge that I was waiting on her to reach for me. And that is all God is asking of us…
