4th of July Reflections

Our scripture today is from Galatians chapter 5 verses 13-15 from the Common English Bible.

13 You were called to freedom, brothers and sisters; only don't let this freedom be an opportunity to indulge your selfish impulses, but serve each other through love. 14 All the Law has been fulfilled in a single statement: Love your neighbor as yourself. 15 But if you bite and devour each other, be careful that you don't get eaten up by each other!

Leader: This is the word of God for a people of God.

All: Thanks be to God.
