Do you ever feel like a slave to people’s opinion or to the things of this world? Freedom from captivity to the people and things of this world is found not in shunning them—“I won’t care what people think!” “I won’t have any nice stuff!”—but in discovering God as captivatingly treasurable. He makes satisfying us the way of our freedom—sometimes over and over again. We go into slavery, but we’re led out captivated and satisfied by God, in bondage no more. What fun it is to help each other to find God as the treasure He is—sometimes over and over again. That’s how we run well together, and that’s our starting point. (See Romans 6 for more.)
