Happy Independence Day

July 4, 2018

I’d like to begin by thanking any and all who have sacrificed so we can have the freedoms we do in this country. It is a sacrifice that does not go unappreciated or unnoticed. 

Today is about patriotism and freedom. It’s a symbolic celebration of a national freedom that was paid for by blood sacrifice, by those willing to lay down their lives for a cause. They declared their freedom and stood their ground, much like we need to do as Christians to have spiritual freedom.

The biggest difference is that to achieve spiritual freedom, the blood sacrifice has already been pain, and we simply have to claim the victory that has already been offered as part of our spiritual heritage as adopted children of the King.

This Wellness Wednesday, I want to encourage you to look closely at your spiritual wellness. While it’s important to keep a healthy balance in all other areas of wellness, if your spiritual wellness is lacking, you’re not going to have peace. To have independence, we choose to depend on our Creator for everything we need.

Today, I encourage you to ask God to give you wisdom and understanding to highlight anything that might be standing in your way, preventing Spiritual freedom. Set a reminder in your phone to help you remember to pray daily (and choose to not feel guilty if you need a reminder! This is all about forming healthier habits!).
