—Romans 8:1-11
by: Trisha Gerstel.
I know many people who do not have a relationship with Christ, and it pains me to watch as they chase after things of this world, thinking they will bring fulfillment and joy. It pains me not only because I know how badly they are being deceived, but also because I am all too familiar with the inevitable pain that comes from such a pursuit. That is why, whenever I witness a friend chasing things of this world, I am reminded to be thankful for the life and freedom that was bought by the cross and sealed by the Spirit.
