Costly Freedom
So Christ has truly set us free. Now make sure that you stay free, and don’t get tied up again in slavery to the law. Galatians 5:1
When a solider enlist into the army, they affirm to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies and at all cost. The freedom that so many have today isn’t free at all someone has paid the price.
In Galatians 5, Paul speaks to the church about the danger of abusing our freedom in Christ. We are set free by Christ but we must be responsible in this freedom that we’ve been given.
Today know that you are free because Christ has set you free. You are free because you are not bound by rules instead you are covered in love. You are free to trust in God’s care, learn from it and then share it with others.
We were created to live lives of freedom in the Lord, to experience deep joy and peace, to serve the Lord without a moment`s doubt and to experience His total acceptance of who we are in Him. We need to let go of everything that is holding us back from experiencing this inner freedom in the Lord and allow Him to mold is into becoming the person He sees us to be.
