There is so much Power in the wind, and I think it comes from the fact that it is not contained. It blows from north to south and turns around and blows from east to west. In life However, this freedom comes with a price tag, an offer that many of us tend to reconsider when we realize what it might take on our end.
Freedom I believe, is the ability to be the real YOU regardless of what it costs.Freedom is being okay with the fact that we are raw materials but we have potential to be the most amazing finished products.Freedom is being able to look deep into who you are right now and still see the one you were created to be. The one who's dreams might be bigger than he/she can sponsor, but understands that the little bits of provision have been hidden in secret places along the way.Freedom is knowing that there is a mark you were born to leave on this earth and though it is not yet clear to you, you are willing to discover this purpose even if it can only be found in the unconventional.
It is not always an easy process because the world in which we live has a way of locking us up in these mental and cultural cages that limit our ability to fly free. So to make up for our lack of commitment to this journey, we try to find short cuts and safe routes.We make every attempt to escape the mistakes, the pain, the questions and the wrong turns.It is ironic because embedded in these paths we flee, are the answers to very essence of our being.
Isn't it funny how kids always want to grow up so they can be free to do what adults do, when in actual fact they are the ones who are free. Free to say whatever they want to say because it comes from an innocence of heart.They are free to dream and see their potential for what it really is,Limitless.
I just wonder if this freedom is allowed to them for this while because we are aware that sooner or later they will encounter the one thing that holds us back, Realities of Life. And if this is the case, What are these realities??Is it truth that we cannot be who we dream of becoming? Doesn't this then challenge the very truth that as a man thinks, so he is?

This must break the very heart of God, to think that as His kids, however old, we have put a limit to what we believe He can accomplish through us.We are so eager to grow up and move out of His Grace into our own abilities. The Irony here is that Jesus who was the Son of God was okay being behind the scenes till He was 30. However in three years on the scene, He had the grace to do that which no other has been able to do.Hebrews 5.8 says Although Jesus was the Son of God, He learned obedience from the things He suffered.
One of my favorite times in life is when I actually get to the chance to go theme parks. The roller coasters should get credit as metaphoric answers to the very questions we seek to find in out quest to know what the future holds. It is full of uncertainties.On a roller coaster, you rise to unimaginable heights and in the twinkle of an eye you are lower than you thought possible. You are turned in every position known to man but somehow you survive.I find it ironic that despite the craziness of the ride, not too many people look forward to the destination,In fact most people detest the destination. It becomes all about the journey.
Could this be what life was meant to be?An adventure,A Story worth sharing? The knowledge that you are strapped and so regardless of what happens,you are safe.The assurance that you are headed somewhere.

I believe that if we would just trust God a little more, We will have a different perspective on this search for purpose.Just like the Adrenaline rush we feel from these rides, taking us right back to the lines for more, we will start to experience the real flavor that exists in this gift called life.
Now we can go Up, Down, Sideways,Upside down, and know we are strapped.Now we are free to raise our hands, scream, and enjoy life.

Galatians 5:1 tells us Christ has set us Free, like the Wind.It also says to make sure that you stay free, and do not get tied up again. God has set us in motion, however fighting for our ability to blow to and fro whatever direction we please, is a choice we make for ourselves.
