NO OBLIGATION
Today's reading: Romans 7-8

What a relief!

Really, what I've read during my quiet time provided the breath of fresh air I so desperately needed. The incentive to keep trying. The 'prize' at the end of the race seems, as of this morning, seems more attainable.

"So, dear brothers and sisters, you have no obligation whatsoever to do what your sinful nature urges you to do." Romans 8:12 NLT

All the sins I've been struggling with...

All the temptations I've been staring at...

All the opportunities to act in an ungodly manner...

All the time I've had the monumental desire to spew just what I was thinking...

I am, and it tells me right here in His Word, under no obligation at all to follow through with any of it!

I hold in my hand, my heart and my mind the choice to be victorious over satan's ploys!

And, dear friend, so do you!
