For each of us that will be different, but without hope in Christ I don't know how some people make it through their days.

It's one of the THE most important things when it comes from breaking free from your cage (or your excuses for your behavior). GREAT post! I'm glad I stopped by today.

Then one day Jesus said... "Come" then he said "Go and bring some more." He didn't care that I was a "girl" "woman" "female." Gal 3:28 There is no longer Jew or Gentile, slave or free, male or female. For you are all Christians-- you are one in Christ Jesus. 29 And now that you belong to Christ, you are the true children of Abraham. You are his heirs, and now all the promises God gave to him belong to you. My cage was/is your a “girl” “woman” “female” your not suppposed to “act like that” “do that” “be that.”

Gal 3:28 There is no longer Jew or Gentile, slave or free, male or female. For you are all Christians– you are one in Christ Jesus.
29 And now that you belong to Christ, you are the true children of Abraham. You are his heirs, and now all the promises God gave to him belong to you.

My beliefs were built on what I was told and shown over and over through many years. Through all of that, I learned many things to trust and rely on ('crutches')--you name it, it was probably one I have dealt with. The most difficult to overcome has been the belief/cage of not being good enough/doubt. However, even that one is disappearing!!! God has brought some wonderful people into my life who have shown me differently and through them I know Jesus and my security is in Him. And now the journey begins... Anne--I love to learn and my mind never stops (that's good and bad ;) ). I usually have a book wherever I go! I love it!! DM–I used to have a LOT of cages, warped beliefs, and all of this.

I was brought up in a fundamentalist church, and the message I heard was that most things were my fault. (I left to become a Presbyterian PCUSA when I heard their message of grace -- you do the confession in the beginning of the service, then you move on to how to serve God.) The guilt stays with me, though. The worst thing is how it keeps me from seeing what the real cages are. How do you have time to read and report on all these books? Guilt is my cage.
