I Free You This Day

 

I will
remove the chains

that have been
on you

so you can do
all that I

ever ask
you to.

You establish my freedom to serve you.

“And now look, I free you this day from the chains that were on your hand. If it seems good to you to come with me to Babylon, come, and I will look after you. But if it seems wrong for you to come with me to Baylon, remain here.” Jeremiah 40:4 NKJV

Heavy Bondage

“. . . yet in spite of this I did not demand the governor’s provisions, because the bondage was heavy on this people.”  Nehemiah 5:18

Those in bondage can’t make provisions for others . . .or even for themselves.

Lord, please help us not demand more than we should of one another.  And here’s a simple poem . . .

Praying Loose

Those in chains
cannot give
as we might want
to expect
until we pray
loose the bonds
with loving care
and respect.
