FREEDOM

For Freedom Christ has Set Us Free! 

Stand Firm then, 

and do not let yourselves 

be burdened again by slavery. 

Galatians 5:1

Freedom, what an amazing word, a glorious feeling. Galatians 5:1 is one of my all time fave verses. I was looking at it with fresh eyes this am. God showed me some of the "YOKES" I tend to go back to and then I looked at what the opposites of those were-the "FREEDOMS" I want to choose to live in today by the power of His spirit.

YOKES --- FREEDOMS:

Yoke: Zoning out

Freedom: fully engaged, mind alert, standing firm 

Yoke: Bitterness/grudges

Freedom: forgiveness- I have been forgiven so much! 

Yoke: Despair

Freedom: Joy right now where I am today

Yoke: Sharp Tongue

Freedom: fruit of the spirit of self control and give life with my words

May I live, may we live as women who are FREE today! 

God, only by your power can we choose to Live Free! Please help us; we need your unending grace and strength. We love you. Amen.
