“There comes a time in all of our lives and sometimes from season to season when we will face a crossroads. In that moment, we must decide whether we will hold fast to our freedom or let that freedom go. Amen.

And in that moment, we will either choose to remain free, or we will once again allow ourselves to be held captive under some form of bondage. Whether it is the bondage of being ruled by what someone else desires from you, the bondage of people-pleasing, or the bondage of not truly living the life that you desire the life that God has given you the freedom to live. Amen.

Because the enemy comes to kill, steal, and destroy anything and everything good in our lives. (John 10:10). He wants us to remain bound in every area or even just one. But either way, if you allow yourself to become anything less than the person God intended you to be, you will live a miserable life at best.

I always say in life go where you are celebrated. Go where you are loved without condition. Amen. Go where you can truly be yourself in every area of life.

For so many people feel like they do not measure up to man’s standards or to someone else’s expectations for life. They feel that God does not love them simply because they live differently than the next person. Amen. Or they feel they are not doing enough to receive anything from God because they sin and fall short of meeting someone else’s idea of perfection.

But here is the thing I myself have been on both sides of the fence, and let me tell you something when you try to please anyone in your life other than God, you will always fall short. You will live in bondage, and freedom will leave. Because you cannot hear what God is saying over your life when the noise of bondage is so loud. And all you can do is hate the life you chose and wish a thousand times over that you could go back and start again and that you would have chosen the path that God intended for you. Amen!

For God has a perfect will and a perfect plan for your life for this beautiful life that He alone has given each of us to live. A life to live out loud in every area. A life to live happy, free, and full of overflowing joy, peace, and purpose. A life so full that it pours out into every part of who we are.

But most of the time, we think we are doing right or choosing right. But if we would simply be still and listen, we would hear what our Father is saying. Then we would not live in fear of what someone else thinks, says, or feels about us. Amen.

Because freedom is a choice. We must guard it, protect it, and never take it for granted. Amen.

To not be free in your life or as a child of God is one of the most miserable feelings a person can experience. To constantly feel like you are not measuring up, or to live a life you do not truly want to live, is not living at all. And that at it’s best is not freedom. Amen.

For God gives us the things in life that truly make us happy and help us thrive. He alone gives us the gifts and joys of life that bring fulfillment. And if we lose sight of who we are, what makes us happy, or allow ourselves to fade away in any area, we open the door for the enemy to begin stealing little by little from our lives and from the life God has given us to live.

So my prayer for all of us is this that we remain free. That we live this life being exactly who God created us to be. That we celebrate every day the gift of freedom we have. That we are bound by nothing and no one. That we live to please the audience of one which is Jesus Christ our Lord. Hallelujah!

Knowing that He is pleased with us. Knowing that we are enough. That we are smart enough. That we are doing enough. That we are living well, thriving, and excelling. Knowing that our Father is pleased with us that my dear sweet friends is freedom. And that is true freedom, and that is the mindset we should always carry with us. Amen.

So do not fear your life or the choices you make, for those things are between you and your Father. Amen.

And as I always say, if God wants something from you, He will let you know but never from a place of bondage or condemnation. Never from a place of “not being good enough.” For He speaks from a place of love and kindness. Amen.

For He will never belittle us. He will always exalt and lift us up. For He alone is a good God and a very good Father. Amen.

“For it is for freedom that Christ has set us free.”
So hold fast, therefore, to the liberty by which you have been made free (Galatians 5:1–12). Amen. “For whom the Son sets free is free indeed.” (John 8:36). Amen!”

“For it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi ❤️

Happy & Blessed Memorial Day! ❤️🇺🇸✨
