—Galatians 4:8-20
by: Trisha Gerstel.
Just as God does not force anyone to lay-hold of salvation through the atoning blood of His Son Jesus Christ, He does not force His children to act in accordance with the leading of His Spirit. The freedom that comes from an intimate relationship with Christ can be attained only when we make the willful decision to turn our backs on the ways of the world and the desires of the flesh. God will not force us to let go of these things; we must choose to walk in the light of His truth and the freedom found only in Christ.
