Freedom

“So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed. ~John 8:36

Freedom.
We think of nations
Of rights,
Government-given
And God-ordained.

We pledge allegiance,
Embrace patriotism.
Some fight to keep it,
And die so others live in it.

But there’s a freedom
That’s above nationality,
Beyond borders.
Individual freedom
Transcending this world.

Freedom
From addiction,
From loneliness,
From depression,
From self.

And Someone suffered,
Dying a brutal death
To win this freedom.
One paid the price
For all.
For you.

Jesus conquered death,
Breaking the bondage
To sin in this world.
Through Him
Our chains fall.
And we can live.

In freedom.

“Lord Jesus, thank you for paying the price for my freedom. For freeing me from my past and making the way for my eternal future with You.”

For His Glory
