I keep thinking about the man in the story who spent 43 years in a 6x9 foot cell. Even more striking is the sense of being overwhelmed when experiencing freedom. The vastness of the sky above, the ocean before, and crowds of people seem too much. There were times the certainty of confinement seemed preferable to the vastness of freedom.
For many people the vastness of God’s Grace can seem overwhelming. How do we function in the Spirit? Some would rather settle into a rules based, law governed, faith. But that is so foreign to the life Jesus invites us to live.
It may seem overwhelming but with the Lords guidance we find fullness and abundance. Follow the path.
It’s been a good day. I hope you’ve had a good day too.
