Thankful Thursday - Freedom in Christ!
October 13, 2010
This month, October, we will meet here at Spiritually Unequal Marriage. In November we will all meet up with Laurie of Women Taking A Stand and return to Grace Alone in December.
Hello My Friends, it’s Thankful Thursday, already, again.
I heart this day.
I love to visit your place. For me, it’s like dropping in on an old and close friend to catch up on your life. What a blessing to see you working in your kitchen, your kids and their antics, your husband who works hard, and your heart for Jesus. It’s a treasured gift to me.
So glad to welcome you back to my home today.
I have to tell you I was tickle by all your comments last week about the pumpkin butt. Laughing Lady said this: Please tell me you don't have it "mooning" passers-by!
I’m still cackling over this thought. However, I assure you I have spared my neighbors this, ahem, unsightly orange behind. *grin*
As I write this post, I have just returned from our Women’s Bible study. This is week five of Breaking Free by Beth Moore. If you’ve been through this study, you remember that week five is extraordinarily challenging week as we deal with hurts from our childhood. This morning I wept as I could feel the pain in the room as women shared.
But, I also shouted more than once, "AMEN" in agreement that we are NOT defeated.
I can shout in victory because it is for freedom that Christ set us free.
Galatians 5:1 It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.
Now shout with me and let’s rejoice:
His power is magnificent and unlimited.
There is nothing He cannot do.
No hurt He cannot heal.
No lie He cannot expose.
No wound He cannot heal.
No bitterness He cannot uproot.
No shackle He cannot break.
What victories has Christ given you? Let’s thank Him for healing, restoration, salvation.
Looking forward to celebrating with you. Hugs, Lynn
