What exactly do you want to be disentangled from: pain, specific people, distress, debt, God? Wait a moment, who wants to be free from the Eternal One? Sadly, many have lost their way altogether, while some meander the delicate line that transcribes one’s path and allegiance. On what side of the delineation do you dwell?
Being independent certainly has its accolades, but what about the downside? Debating on declaring your freedom from labor, society, influence, finances, commitments, connections? Voilà: you are an island, no bridges, no interference, no bonds – absolved of duty to your fellow man and The Lord. So, what is your next step or game plan now that no controlling forces restrain or configure your life? This could be the big break you have been waiting for, or it could be a bleak, lengthy, descent where you walk hand in hand with despair and deep regret.

It is beneficial to sever ties that cause internal affliction and deflate the spirit such as material addictions, preventable or treatable physical ailments, another’s harsh words, or an emotional dependency that suffocates your unique gifts and ways of being, which God consciously and purposefully granted you. Gifts are a funny thing – we think they are for us, to do with as we please, and use to our advantage, but the truth is: if they are held on to, they will vaporize like the glistening morning dew as the solar energy singes and devours the magical glow.
As you go about your activities for the Fourth of July, celebrating independence from England’s persevered principles, don’t forget to give thanks for the ultimate dependent bond from the One who watches over us whether we acknowledge it or not, and loves us dearly and unconditionally. The golden ticket is coined self -regulation, but when it comes to The Lord, a little reliance, servility and helplessness (don’t moan) can provide extra spiritual mileage, and a joyful, fruitful union. Knowing and savoring God’s guidance and grace, fosters our God Given Gifts to be revealed and utilized by many. Sometimes, Dependence imparts the greatest Independence.

** Happy Fourth of July! May God bless America and all who are devoted to her reign, and the Almighty’s will. **
Tobit 4:5-6, “Through all your days, son, keep the Lord in mind, and do not seek to sin or to transgress the commandments. Perform righteous deeds all the days of your life, and do not tread the paths of wickedness. For those who act with fidelity, all who practice righteousness, will prosper in their affairs.”
