We are blessed to be able to live in freedom in the United States of America. Sometimes we need to be reminded of the price of freedom. Many brave people gave the ultimate sacrifice to gain and preserve our freedom. We must never take that for granted.

Likewise, let us be reminded of the price that Jesus paid in order to set us free from sin and enable us to become God’s children. Jesus had to make the ultimate sacrifice by dying on the cross for us. We must never take that for granted either!

“It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.”—Galatians 5:1.
