Get out of the bathroom!

Kelly called me this morning and said that Silas had locked himself in the bathroom. I could hear him in the background and the singing and laughing assured me he was having a good time in there. But a 2 year-old locked in a bathroom with a tub and access to faucets and a medicine cabinet and lots of toilet paper is cause of concern. Thankfully, while I was on the phone with Kelly, she made entry and rescued the little guy!

The thing is, Silas had no idea he needed to be rescued. To him, everything seemed great. He didn't realize he was locked up, confined, and in need of deliverance.

We've been called to freedom, but far too often, we live locked up. Locked up in sin; locked up in legalism; locked up in the ways of this world. And many times, we don't even realize it.

Paul writes in Galatians 5:1 - "It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery."

We've been set free! We've been delivered!! So lets not 'lock ourselves in the bathroom' anymore, but instead stand firm on His promises!
