Freedom

Praise the Lord, I am free! Jesus gives us freedom through His shed blood on the cross! Freedom from the sin that enslaves us and allows us to wallow in self-pity.

I was reading in Romans 7:14-24; that Paul struggles with wanting to do what is right but rather does what is wrong. he realizes his sinful nature within him. Paul realizes his own "failure" at doing what is right. How often do we do the same. We struggle in our daily lives with financial pressure, inadequacies, self-pity, etc. Romans 7:25 says that we can be freed by Jesus Christ.

Jesus Christ has given us freedom! Through His grace and mercy, He saves us and cleanses us from all the things that hold us back from worshipping Him! Romans 6:14

Thanks be to God! He has set us free!

Blessings,
