Galatians 5: 1
It was for freedom that Christ set us free; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery.
I hope you have been savoring the sweet taste of freedom this weekend. I imagine many of you have today off to celebrate our political freedom. As you do, say a thank you to Jesus for your personal freedom as well. You know, the two are interconnected. Political freedom is not worth much without personal freedom. The price has been paid by countless citizens for our religious, political and personal freedom but it was Jesus who created the platform by which others have been able to stand for the liberties we now enjoy.
I am so very grateful for those who paid the price and for all who continue to pray for our country and our leaders today. Freedom still has a high cost but praise our Lord who gave us freedom so that we could pursue liberty. Thank you Lord. And Happy Birthday America!
