Celebrate Freedom and Love
Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as God’s slaves. Show proper respect to everyone, love the family of believers, fear God…—1 Peter 2:16–17 (NIV)
That energy is God’s energy, an energy deep within you.—Philippians 2:13 MSG
Need a boost of energy as we wind down from Christmas and wind up for the New Year? Turn to the Source of all energy—God! Keep a Bible nearby and open it to the Psalms. Be energized through the power and presence of God’s Word.
Heavenly Father, refresh my spirit. Give me the energy to carry on all I hope to do as we wrap up this holiday season. Fill me with joy and help me cherish this special time.
Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as God’s slaves. Show proper respect to everyone, love the family of believers, fear God…—1 Peter 2:16–17 (NIV)
See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are!—1 John 3:1 (NIV)
Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.—John 15:13 (NIV)
