Christian Reflection and Prayer

Scripture:

"Know that the Lord, He is God; it is He who
has made us, and not we ourselves; we are His people."
(Psalm 100:3)

Reflection:

Living in a nation that is built upon freedom can be difficult at
times. It is affirmed in the "The Declaration of Independence".
that God has endowed all people with the right to life, liberty, and
the pursuit of happiness, mainly because God values each one of
us. But the framers of the Declaration of Independence new that
freedom did not mean to do anything we please. You see I believe
that true freedom can never be enjoyed by a people who refuse to
love and fear God. As the Psalm says, God made us, not we
ourselves, we are God's people. Real freedom comes from God.
We are responsible to God, because He has created us in love.
I would like to challenge you to recommit yourself to living as one of
God's people. That's really the way to enjoy true freedom.

Prayer:

Lord I recognize that every blessing is a gift from you above, but I
cannot know true freedom till I trust in Your Grace and Love.
Blessed is the nation whose god is the Lord. THANK YOU GOD FOR BEING
GOD!

"The job of the peacemaker is to stop war, to purify the world, to get it saved
from poverty and riches, to heal the sick, to comfort the sad, to wake up
those who have not yet found God."
