Guided in Our Freedom

In the words of Christ
in his sermon on that mount
telling us how to live
guided in our freedom

Mindful of our neighbor
in everything we say
in every action of our life
in how we walk on earth

Gently sharing the world
not marching to our own drummer
caring for those near and far
acting like our brother

Looking at the story of Christ
how he walked on the earth
a model for our own days
now that we have his freedom

No longer under the sentence
the yoke of the law
freed by his sacrifice
his going to the cross

This love he shared
giving meaning to his words
instruction for our walk here
sharing his message of love

received July 1, 2010
“This Sunday my sermon is titled “Pursuing More Than Happiness,”
and it is based on Matthew 5:1-13. If you have a few minutes to read
this passage of scripture prior to attending the service, you might get
a little more out of the sermon. In this sermon, I want to challenge us all
to live with greater intentionality and to find deeper levels of meaning
for our lives. Instant gratification can be the enemy of faithful living.
Intentionality is the path to blessedness.”
