Embracing Freedom Through Faith #475*

Embracing Freedom Through Faith In the heart of truth, the gospel stands, A beacon bright, with open hands. Aligning conscience, pure and clear, With Jesus’ teachings, we draw near. A life unburdened, free from self, Where selfishness and envy melt. Protected lives, from chaos spared, In Jesus’ love, our souls repaired. James warns us of ambition's thorn, Of jealousy, and hearts forlorn. Disorder blooms where these reside, But in His grace, we're sanctified. Worldly ties may bind and blind, Hardening the heart, the soul confined. Yet, in Christ’s freedom, we find release, In moments blessed, our hearts at peace. Blessed are those, in faith who dwell, For in their hearts, His love does swell. Through faith in Christ, our spirits soar, Embracing freedom, forevermore. Written by Steven G. Lee (March 5, 2024)
