Called to be Free But for What

Описание: Called to Be Free—But for What?Scripture ReadingGalatians 5:13 (NIV)“You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love.”ExplanationFreedom is one of the most celebrated values of our time. Yet Paul immediately qualifies Christian freedom. We are not set free to indulge ourselves, but to love and serve others. True freedom is not the absence of restraint but the presence of a transformed heart—a better heart—that knows how to use freedom well. Without that heart, freedom quickly becomes selfishness.Personal ReflectionIn what ways have you defined freedom primarily as “doing what I want”? How has that definition shaped your decisions and relationships?Personal ApplicationToday, pause before asserting your preferences. Ask yourself: Does this express love? Invite God to reshape your understanding of freedom so that your choices flow from a heart transformed by grace.Join us again tomorrow as we continue reflecting on how a better heart leads to true freedom.
