As I read Colossians 2:16 this afternoon, I was yet again reminded of things mentioned here. Paul tells the church at Colossae, "Therefore let no one pass judgment on you in questions of food and drink, or with regard to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath."
Many rules and regulations serve good purposes, yet they are not to be our ultimate concern. I think the Lord is showing me much about FREEDOM in this way because I continue to learn so much about the Holy Spirit. The more I get to know the Holy Spirit, the more dependent I am upon Him for guidance. When we walk by the flesh, we need the rules and regulations to submit to. But when we walk by the Spirit, we need submit to Him in relationship. He gives us discernment. He lets us know what is right and wrong to do. And I tell you what, I have much growing and learning to do, I wan the Spirit and relationship more than the flesh and rules. More of you, Lord, more.
