Jettison the Junk

It is easy to get entangled in the worthless things of this world.

The Bible say to lay aside every weight that so easily besets us. We are instructed not to become entangled in the lower things of this world. I have found that it takes a conscious effort to stay free from sin and from the junk in this life.

One way to get free and stay free is to regularly jettison the junk. We can spiritually throw out the garbage in our lives. When we gaze at our condition, we must simply remember to take out the trash.

We can stay free from entanglements by setting up some guardrails in our lives. If there is something we struggle with, we need to install some safety nets to keep us from falling. Sometimes we just need to avoid certain places and people and situations to stay free. For many folks it requires replacing the negative influences with positive ones. In any case, we must choose to get free and stay free.

Be encouraged today my friend. Whom the Son sets free is free indeed. Jettison the junk in your life, and live free in Christ!
