You, my brothers, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature; rather, serve one another in love.
—Galatians 5:13
Thoughts on Today’s Verse…
Freedom is a wonderful gift when it is handled with responsibility. Not being under the law is such a sweet grace, but we want to pass that sweetness on to each other through service, kindness, and care.
My Prayer…
O Great God of Deliverance, thank you for rescuing Israel from Pharaoh’s grasp, David from the sword of Goliath, and Daniel from the lion’s den. But O Great Deliverer, thank you most of all for the triumph of Jesus over sin at Calvary and his victory over death at the empty tomb. I long to see you face to face and thank you for my freedom. Until that day, guide me as I use this gift of liberation to serve your children and live for you. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
