If they stop telling you what to do will you be able to think for yourself? If God has a plan for everyone's life then he should have simply lived them himself and not bothered with people at all.
Yes. I have always found life is in the details.
And yes, I would be able to think for myself. But having a little guidance every now and then is much appreciated.
Like in my current job, I am able to run the reconciliation issues without someone looking over my shoulder (even coming up with my own procedures), but I will occasionally seek guidance from a superior if there is something that does not look exactly kosher. There is no shame in seeking help when it is needed.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
