Freedom

As we are watching today's historic events unfold in Egypt where thousands upon thousands are in the streets the main word we hear is 'freedom'.  The joy on people's faces as they hug one another, tears streaming, smiles, chants.  Freedom - just the word brings a sense of calm. We pray today that calm will rest over those who have fought so diligently in this area of the world and that freedom will continue to reign.
Before watching today's news I was reading Romans 6:18 "You have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness."  There is no greater freedom we can have than this and when we have it the calm we feel and live on a daily basis cannot be taken from us no matter what circumstances we live in.  
We would ask you to pray with us today for our missionaries in Southern Europe as they share Christ's freedom with those around them.
