Independance Day

Today is the 4th of July. There isn't much going on in the Emerson house today. Jennifer is cleaning out some closets and I have been doing some yard work. Today invokes a lot of memories of growing up. My grandaddy was a high ranking official in the army before he retired. As you can imagine the importance of our Independence declaration was a very important subject. I hope and pray that our freedom would result in an uninhibited desire to tell people that Jesus is the Way, Truth and Life and that no one goes to the Father except through Him. Freedom came at a price and no where is that more true than in Christianity. Galatians 5 teaches us that we were 'freed for freedom sake. ' We have simply been freed to serve God not to live as we wish, the rest of the chapter makes that clear. What do you think is the greatest responsibility of our freedom in Christ?
