more to learn

Sunday, March 17, 2019 (7:22 a.m.)

Blessed God,

How I thank You. You provide us such joy. And even with this Truth, there is so very much to learn.

Turning to Your Word, my first find is Galatians 5:22. With so many translation there is so very much more to learn. Thank You Father.

Yes thank You that we have the opportunity to learn more. More of what You have for us. Thank You God.

Looking into the various versions, a comment in The Voice teaches us “Paul has been preaching about the call of God to freedom, and so he now spells it out: we are done with the demands of the law; now we are free to live in the Spirit and to be truly right with God.” Oh, yes Blessed Father! We get to choose!

“As free people, the Spirit gives us the characteristics of Jesus; we, too, can freely love in joy and peace. We can have patience along with kindness and faithfulness that can only come from the Father. We can reflect the goodness of God while being gentle in operating with self-control. For those who follow Him and live in the Spirit, these characteristics or fruits are a gift from God. As we grow in the faith, we find that we belong to God and can walk daily in the Spirit.” How grateful I am for the freedom You provide us.

Yes Father. We have freedom in You. Please continue teaching us to use it well.

I love You. I thank You. And I ask You to do exactly all You know is best this day. Thank You, Father. I love You. Amen.
