Ephesians 3:12 (The Message)

When we trust in Him, we're free to say whatever needs to be said, bold to go wherever we need to go.

In Christ we are free to be who we are, free to be the beautiful people our God created us to be. We are free to be just who we are right now, knowing that He will finish that which He has begun in our lives because we trust in Him and have given our lives to Him.

However there will be times when we encounter those who don’t like or approve of who we are right now, and will faithfully believe that it is their God given duty to force us to change.

We need to understand that in the face of this type of pressure, we can freely speak the truth of who we are in Christ right now, with the security of knowing that from glory to glory He is changing us, and that what He is doing in our lives is His sacred work and nobody else’s, and certainly gives nobody the right to stand in judgment over us.

Being bold to go where we need to go, sometimes means that we may find ourselves being moved from what has been, up till now, a comfortable place for us, because we are in bondage to the opinions of others.hi For if we live our lives under the yoke of religious expectations and condemnation, we cannot serve God.  

We must ultimately become that which God wants us to be and not what man would mould us into, and it is our responsibility to allow Him to make us into that which he destined us to be before the world began!

Remember that in Christ we are free to move out of the shadows of the opinions of man, and free to surrender to the light of Gods love!!

So today……….

Trust in Christ and live free!!!

Stay fervently focused

Much love
