We really know how to twist a phrase don't we? We are expert at finding a way to turn something meant for the glory of God into an opportunity for the flesh. Love God...love Jesus over everything, supremely, in first place in everything. And do as you please...you will want to please Him. Your desires will be in line with His (Ps. 37:4). We spin it like this...like God, give Him a quick nod, and then do whatever, whenever, with whomever, you please.
We all walk this tightrope between legalism and license. Like tiptoeing on the steep ridge of a roof with sharp slopes on either side, the delicate balance of grace-based living can only be balanced by God Himself. It's Proverbs 3:5-6 once again, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight." Truly love God, and you will do what pleases Him without fear, stress or regret.
