Oh man, oh man, it’s July 1st and people have already begun to put up patriotic decorations, and signs. Not to mention the big signs that say “FIREWORKS SOLD HERE”. Everyone wants to celebrate, but do they really know what they’re celebrating for? What freedoms they are personally thankful for or are they just celebrating because Wal-mart has signs up about the 4th of July?

I don’t think freedom is what it used to be. I really think that Satan has taken a hold of what that word means to a lot of people and is twisted it like the way he does with tolerance of other religions. However as a Christian freedom means to me that I’m free in Christ to do anything I please because I’m saved by grace, but it also means that I’m free from sin so I don’t have to. I am free to follow Jesus with my whole heart, no matter what people tell me. I recently found this verse in Romans, which really got me. A lot of people really do think that because they’re saved by grace that can do anything they please, but the Bible teaches that we are free from sin and are to be servants unto Christ, to live unto holiness and live forever!

I thank God I am free of sin and free to follow Him! Christ has set me free… no matter what people might say about having Freedom Or Chains!

As you have imagined this month’s issue of GGM is all about freedom, and I think most if not all of the article are written about different aspects of freedom….Do we really have as many as we think? In our government? In Christ? See what the writers are GGM think about some of the hot topics about FREEDOM FOR ALL! And, I hope you’ll leave your thoughts and opinions about what you believe when you stop by.

Blessings!
