Identify the shackles (restraints to freedom) in your life that keep you from expressing the love of Christ for others. Shackles include worry, fear, addiction, peer pressure, etc. One of my shackles is the fear of rejection by others. We need to uncover our shackles before God in prayer, repent, and allow him to remove them. God’s word and his Spirit transform our shackles, and the power of God amazes others. “The truth will set you free” (John 8:32, NIV). Then we can truly demonstrate what God calls us to be.
