I am so thankful for the freedom I have in Christ! And, as I shared before, though I have experienced His power to overcome a few times before, I never truly felt free from my struggle with lust (because let's face it, that's what obsessing over romance is, or at least leads to) until my weekend in Lubbock. Today I had to remember that freedom does not mean I won't be tempted; in fact today it apparently does not even mean I won't give in... You see, today I slipped up and gave in; but I surprisingly do not feel any less free. As I quickly repented and shifted focus I realized that the power of the Holy Spirit helped keep me from the chains of sin! So I was not ensnared in the cycle again, but remained free in Christ! Today I have to thank and praise Him for that!!
