Truth and Freedom

In prior days, we studied the tenet of gaining liberty by knowing God’s Word. For us to take in the truth, we must do more than simply read or memorize Scripture ; we must also meditate on it - then the Holy Spirit will teach us to apply the Word to our lives.
God does not simply free us from old negative thought patterns and feelings of inadequacy ; He frees us to serve Him with our entire being. When we become overly worried about what the people next door think about us, whether we are secure enough, or which things we are lacking, then we have tiny to give away to anybody else. But the Lord wants His people pouring their lives into those that are suffering and wounding. His limitless love releases us to accept others in their present condition.
Godly liberty carries responsibility. We are responsible to our siblings and sisters who are in need. If we think the Lord has liberated us for ourselves, then we have didn’t understand, and we aren’t actually free. God has saved us, provided us, and armed us with His love so we can carry out His universal goal : to bring to everyone the good news that Jesus Christ is Lord. In a total reversal of the Earth’s system, our liberty has roots in our obedience to God’s purpose for our life. We’ve got a choice to accept His love for us, and we must decide whether to communicate that love with others.
Will you opt to share His love today?
