CELEBRATES FREEDOM

Reading: Romans 6:15-23
NATS: For the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death (Romans 8:2)

After being kidnapped and held hostage for 13 days, then finally released, news cameraman from New Zealand, Olaf Wiig, with a big smile said, "Now I feel more alive than my lifetime ago."

For some incomprehensible reason, freed was more exciting than living free.

For those who enjoy the freedom of every day, joy Olaf is a good reminder of how we so easily forget how very blessed we are. This is also true in the spiritual life. Anyone of us who have long been Christians often forget what it was like to be slaves to sin. We can be complacent and even less grateful. However, Allah sends warnings through someone new converts. He testified that inspires joy of what God has done in his life. And, it is testimony once again reminds us of the joy that we feel when we are freed from the law of sin and death (Romans 8:2).

If freedom has become a regular thing for you, or if you tend to focus on what you can not do, think about this: you are not only no longer be slaves to sin, but you are also liberated to become holy and enjoy eternal life in the Jesus Christ! (Romans 6:22).

Celebrate your freedom in Christ by providing a time to give thanks to God for the things that can and you are free to do as His servant - JAL

LIVING FOR CHRIST

WILL PROVIDE TRUE FREEDOM
