I'm Free! {A post by Kaitlin}

I’m Free! I’m Free!  Yesterday we moved from Craig hospital into a hotel just a few miles down the road.  Since then we have been enjoying this “freedom” to the fullest! Our hotel happens to share a parking lot with Chili’s AND a movie theater; so John and I obviously enjoyed both last night.  Today we took a quick visit to our home in Aurora and then headed up to Boulder!

 What a joy it was to be able to leave my residence without having to worry about notifying doctors, nurses, pharmacy techs, etc..  I won’t say this new freedom has been free of bumps and bruises; but the JOY I am experiencing to be living life outside of the hospital’s yoke far outweighs the struggles.

This new stage reminds me that freedom isn’t easy.  Even freedom in Christ isn’t EASY…no one said it would be, but it is JOYFUL.  We are set FREE to live life fully by the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.  Seize this freedom that has been given to us along with the bumps, bruises, hardships, and overwhelming JOY that it offers. 

I am looking forward to exploring this new life the Lord has given me.  I am FREE!

“Who the Son sets free is free indeed”  Romans 8:36
