Paul writes to the followers in Galatia about 2,000 years ago, “You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom for self-indulgence; rather, serve one another humbly in love.”
We humans pursue our adolescent desires of freedom from constraint to go too far into pursuing that which we think makes us happy.
Rather find happiness through being a person of service to others.
When we leave the old life and even grudgingly serve somewhere, our own lives are improved. And as we serve, even our physical and mental health are improved.
I love paradox—while discarding indulging what we think we would like we discover a better life.
