Liberty

You are speaking to me this morning about the great freedom Your divine love brings to one's soul. Freedom to be the peculiar people we are! Freedom from criticism, blame, condemnation, and guilt. Being ourselves, not hiding what part of ourselves we think is unacceptable but knowing that you Father, are working within us to align our hearts with Your word.

When we know that Christ, the lover of our souls, loves us deeply, we are released to be who You created us to be. There are no fears of rejection, no constantly looking for approval of man, no feigning and insincerity of heart.

The word "sincere" in the Greek can mean "found pure when unfolded and examined by the sun's light". I love that Father. Real, undisguised, and no hidden agenda. A sincere heart has no desire to control the conversation or to control what others feel or say. It simply accepts people where they are and by the grace and love given to us, we speak truth or we don't speak at all.
Not being afraid to be real or genuine is liberating!

The most wonderful thing about the liberty You give to us Father, is that You enable us to give it to others. It shines with Your light and Your love.

Thank you Father that You say in Your word that "where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty". 2 Cor 3:17 The risen Christ abides within each believer and He is our hope.
