“You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love. 14 For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” 15 If you bite and devour each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other.”
Galatians 5:13-15 NIV
Freedom requires humility, sacrifice and a willingness to put the needs of many before one
Freedom is the result of human beings working together for a common cause…not by shouting and trying to tear others down
Freedom is earned through courage and a belief in something greater than self
Jesus Christ is the one who provided the example of sacrifice and the willingness to forgive…
We all would do well to read about Him and His example of love
Jesus paid the price for our sin so we could be free to love one another
Time to put down the flaming arrows of hate and to serve one another in love
Thank you God, for Jesus sacrifice and for all the people who serve and have served in the military services of this country…
Thank you for their willingness to put themselves in the line of fire so others can prosper
I give thanks for them and their families that have sacrificed so much in the name of freedom for all of us
In Jesus name, Amen
“Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others.”
Philippians 2:3-4 NIV
