“For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death.”
Romans 8:2
(Tiger swallowtail butterfly visits the blueberries / Julie Cook / 2016)
Anyone who has ever felt the full weight, the abject heaviness of the shackled chains
of all that they have ever done that was…
bad,
wrong,
deceitful,
selfish,
sick,
illegal,
lewd,
hurtful,
hateful,
evil,
vile…
Sinful…
Whoever has carried, lived with, bore up under…
all that was less than…
Less than that which has ever been known to have been better not to have been…
done,
said,
acted upon,
thought,
harbored,
carried out…
An empty tomb
A new day
A new life
A promise fulfilled…
Has finally set you free…
‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”
Revelation 21:4
