For the wages of sin is death.

Death may come in many forms, not just the literal one we are all familiar with. Of course, that is the most obvious and most permanent form, but the others are just as deadly.

Emotional death.

Death to love.

Death to others.

All are tragic.

But we have an awesome promise: that we are no longer bound to sin! We are free from that endless torment. That does not mean that we are free from temptation, but that temptation no longer has any hold whatsoever upon us. In short, we are free.

That means that we are free to live.

I claim that promise. And the joy that I've found is amazing.
