On Freedom

This definition came to me by way of a preacher friend who wrote it in the fly leaf of a New Testament that I carried at the time. I can't improve on it.

"Freedom is not the right to do what you want to do, but it is the power to do what you ought to do."

On this day in which we celebrate freedom, I hope we have remembered to thank God for what we have, it is Him that has empowered us to do what is right.
