He [Jesus] did not live his freedom, however, as license or dominion. He lived it as service. In this way he "filled" with content a freedom that would have otherwise remained an"empty" possibility to do or not do something. As the life itself of man, freedom takes its meaning from love. Who is more free? The one who holds onto all possibilities for fear of of losing them, or the one who "resolutely" gives himself in service and thus finds himself full of life because of the love that he has given and received?
