Freedom is a gift and a responsibility!

I rejoice that I live in the United States. I have the freedom to worship God, to work hard and buy my own home, to take a vacation once in a while. Freedom is precious. It is also costly! It cost the lives of many soldiers. We must honor liberty and freedom by living as righteous citizens and do our part to promote good will and peace in our regions.

We are also free in Christ. We have been redeemed by the blood of the lamb. Our sins are forgiven. However, we must not use our liberty to sin and do whatever we please, instead, we must use this liberty to serve one another. Love delivered us. Love set us free. So, love must now flow through us  so that others can also see and embrace God’s love! Be a model of His love and serve this generation with grace and joy. This will please the heart of God!

Galations 5:13-15: “For you, brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” But if you bite and devour one another, beware lest you be consumed by one another!”
