Freedom Quote by Beth Moore
““In various ways, all of us have blessed with one breath and cursed with the next. We’ve all been tempted to talk one way in our spiritual relationships and another way in our worldly relationships. Inconsistency may be common, but it is also costly. We pay the price with powerlessness more often than we know. But living with less regret over our hastily spoken words is freedom indeed! Imagine the liberty of not needing to worry about someone discovering we broke a confidence or talked unkindly behind her back. God’s way is always the path to freedom—powerful freedom.””
