Liberty


 

Galatians 5:13 

 

13 For you were called to freedom, brothers and sisters;

only do not use your freedom as an opportunity to indulge your flesh,

but through love serve one another.

 

We are called to liberty

We should use liberty right

But when our flesh gets hold of it

it won’t let go without a fight

We are to serve one another

in love for that is right

But we can’t do that without liberty

and that is out of sight
