Independence...

Today, is Independence Day. To America, Happy Birthday!! To the rest of you, enjoy your barbecues, sun, and relaxing good times. In all you do, don't for get about the Father. No, not the one falling asleep because he's too full from grilled chicken and ice cream (hey you, the one reading this post: wipe the drool from Daddy's bottom lip!) Ok, now, back to my post...Don't forget about the heaven father, the one who ultimately created you. While you may be independent in the fact you have your own place/room, car/bus pass, and money, you are NOT independent from God. He will not leave you--why would or should you leave Him? What are you doing to cause, either on purpose or by mistake, absolute independence by trying to do things on your own? What's the purpose? You were created by Him, pushed out through your mother by His power, raised and still alive because of Him, so what, exactly are you doing? To be independent of the Father is to be absent from all sanity, empty, lost, and without purpose.

Father, thank you for allowing me to make my own choices, have my own thoughts, be my own person, but not independent from You. Amen.
