I say this for your own benefit, not to lay any restraint upon you, but to promote good order and to secure your undivided devotion to the Lord. Though I am free from all, I have made myself a servant to all, that I might win more of them. I say this for your own benefit, not to lay any restraint upon you, but to promote good order and to secure your undivided devotion to the Lord.
1 Corinthians 9:19
True freedom is found in Jesus. But one who truly follows Jesus is careful in the exercising of that freedom.
We are free to serve!
This seems like a dichotomy, yet it is a central tenant of Faith. That’s because we realize that “it’s not about us!” We live and die for Jesus because He lived and died for us! We live and die for others because He lived and died for us!
It’s about Jesus and others!
We are here to live, love, and serve.
So may we exercise our true freedom wisely and in the fear of the Lord!
