Freedom
This word can conjure up many images.
Children enjoying summer vacation — freedom!
Youth getting their driver’s licenses — freedom!
Fourth of July — celebrating freedom!
Those suffering persecution and slavery who are seeking — freedom!
Those of us who have our freedom in and through Christ desire to respond. How? In his letter to the Galatians Paul declares,
For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. For the whole law is fulfilled in one word: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself” (Galatians 5:13-14).

May our loving response as redeemed children of God glorify our Savior!
