The Christ of the don’ts and can’ts is not the Christ at all. It is the delusional lie that I shunned for years; I cannot do what I want if He is He to me. But after 39 years I can say with all truthfulness, I would never have known me until He allowed me to be me. I am made only to be freely me. He made me to be free. He is always and only The Christ of the dos and cans. The freedom He has given me is the freedom to be freely me. Its foundation? The freedom to acknowledge and delight in Him. The freedom from the world to be in the world. The spiritual, emotional, psychological, physical, mental, and creative exhilaration that comes to me through Him in me. The exuberance of all the dos and cans now mine in Him.
P.S. A minor/major byproduct of all Him in me. Knowing Art.
