Real Freedom

As we ride the twisting roads and sense the freedom that we have on our bike, do you want to sense the same freedom in your daily life? Have you tried to find this freedom in many ways, only to be left with a sense of emptiness after a time?
Real freedom does not depend on the external circumstances of life but comes from a sense of peace deep within. There is only one way we can gain peace and that is to be in a right relationship with God, through His Son, Jesus Christ. There is, however, one problem that keeps us from gaining the freedom we desire - sin. Man is sinful by nature which causes us to miss the best that God has planned for us. Man also deliberately chooses to run his own life leading who knows where. For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God. (Romans 3:23) All we, like sheep, have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. (Isaiah 53:6)
Sin, accordingly, will lead to separation from God. In this condition, we cannot experience the abundant life which God planned for us. For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23) We deserve to be eternally separated from God because of our sinful nature. But God has made it possible for us to choose to have the abundant life now as well as forever in Heaven with Him. He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. (John 3:36) The solution, of course, is Jesus Christ. When Jesus Christ died on the cross and rose from the grave, He paid the penalty we deserve for our sins. His death and resurrection made it possible for us to live the abundant life. For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit. (1 Peter 3:18).
Dear Jesus, Please come into my heart and save me from my sins. I want to begin to experience a life full of real freedom that only You can provide. I know that Jesus died on the cross for my sins. I than You for that truth and ask You to forgive me of my sins. Thank you, Lord, for the sacrifice you made for me. In Jesus name, Amen.
