Bondage and Freedom

You love the rules
that bind you.
You love the safety
of their cage
that keeps you
from freedom.
You want a wall
to keep you in.

You don’t know Me.
Let Me free you.
Free you from
your rules.
Come to Me.
Free to go.
Come freely.
Take My cross.

Know Me.
Be bound by My love.
Like Mary, Moses
all the saints.
Go forth.
Fearlessly.
Joyfully.
Obedient.
