Do you value your freedom? Why? I tell you to stand fast in the liberty in which I have made you free and not to be entangled again in the yoke of bondage. Do you view your liberty as a basis for unrestricted action or as the means by which you can fulfill your destiny? These are very different. The first centers around you, and the second around finding my purpose and plan for you. I have given you liberty, and yet I still tell you to lay down your life and pick up your cross and follow me. If you understand these things you will know what I meant when I said that he who seeks to save his life will lose it, but he who loses his life for my sake will find it.
