Freedom (n.): To ask nothing. To expect nothing. To depend on nothing.
~ Ayn Rand
I came across that quote this morning, and I thought 'How devastatingly sad!' To me that definition speaks less of freedom than of complete isolation.
Surely freedom comes when we hope in God, expecting that He will work on our behalf as we seek His glory, depending utterly on Him. After all, He's the one that came to set captives free. He tells us we don't have because we don't ask...
Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.
2 Cor 3:17
