Dear Friends,<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Do we truly know how to “live free”?\u00a0 So often our own minds rob us of our freedom to live in the Spirit.\u00a0 It’s difficult to resist the voices in our minds that constantly tug at us in different directions.\u00a0 Prayer is our only hope to find the path to true freedom and peace.\u00a0 I pray you find that quiet place to refocus on the voice of Christ and His amazing love for us.\u00a0 Peace, Scott

There Is No Condemnation<\/strong>\u00a0for those who are in Me.\u00a0The law of the Spirit of Life has set you free from the law sin and death.<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0 Not many Christians know how to live in this radical freedom, which is their birthright.\u00a0 I died to set you free; live freely in Me!<\/p>\n

To walk along the path of freedom, you must keep your mind firmly fixed on Me.\u00a0 Many voices proclaim: “This is the way for you to go,” but only My voice tells you the true way.\u00a0 If you follow the way of the world with all its glitter and glamour, you will descend deeper and deeper into an abyss.\u00a0 Christian voices also can lead you astray: “Do this!”\u00a0 “Don’t do that!”\u00a0 “Pray this way!”\u00a0 Don’t pray that way!”\u00a0 If you listen to all those voices, you will become increasingly confused.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Be content to be a simple sheep, listening for My voice and following Me.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>I will lead you into restful green pastures and guide you along paths of righteousness.
\n<\/em><\/strong>
\nRomans 8:1-2\u00a0<\/strong>1<\/sup>Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ\u00a0Jesus,\u00a02<\/sup>because through ChristJesus\u00a0the law of the Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death.
\n
\nIsaiah 30:21\u00a0<\/strong>21<\/sup>\u00a0Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.”
\n
\nJohn\u00a010:27\u00a0<\/strong>27<\/sup>My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.
\n
\nPsalm 23:1-3\u00a0<\/strong>1<\/sup>\u00a0The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.\u00a02<\/sup>\u00a0He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, 3he restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.<\/p>\n
