"Freedom is not free," it took me nearly forty-years to realize this fact about freedom. It was not until I fully embraced the grace and love of God and the Lord Jesus Christ, that I experienced true freedom. This book gives a concise description of the byways and highways I took in order to arrive at the point in my life where I could honestly say, "FREE AT LAST, THANK GOD ALMIGHTY, I AM FREE AT LAST!" In the course of me going from a man who spent 3/5th of his life behind prison bars and insane asylum fences. I can tell you that freedom was wasted on me as long as I took it for granted. I was delivered from all the mental, emotional and spiritual shackles that held me bound, the day I gave my life over to God. Now I can declare that I not only talk about the joy of being free, but can also testify that there is no more liberating freedom than that which comes with Christs' blood bought Salvation, and the peace of mind that the Father gives all those "whose mind is stayed on Him." It is my belief that none of us can get the full benefit out of freedom in its true form until we understand that, "The One we serve determines the rewards we get for our servitude." The reality is, that as long as we live on this earth, we are going to serve either God and Jesus, or Satan and our flesh. Trust me when I tell you, "Your life will be a hundred times better off if you commit yourself to being in the will of God." I hope that you will read my testimony as it is summed up in this small book, and know that what Jesus did for me, once I accepted the freedom he purchased for me on the Cross of Calvary, he will do the same thing for you.
