True freedom cannot be determined by where one lives or by what one possesses. Jesus taught in John 8:31, 32,
“If you hold to My teaching, you are really My disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
Freedom in Christ is a rare and precious gift that cannot be taken away any more than His grace can be removed or shattered by our changing circumstances. Such freedom is more about surrendering to Him to be freed from sins bondage and misery. If you know Christ, you are free to live for, love and serve Him, no matter where you live or what you may or may not possess.
I enjoyed watching this video this morning and pray that you will too.
All to His Glory!

“Christ has set us free to live a free life. So take your stand! Never again let anyone put a harness of slavery on you.” – Galatians 5.1 MSG

Thanks, Kathie. Been praying for those Christians in Nigeria, Syria and Egypt as they count the cost of loving Jesus. They need us to hold them up, just as we need their example of courage.

You are right on all counts friend. Blessings to you in savoring the freedom that was won for us at such a radical cost.
