A five pointed star
from Daily Picture · host Stephanie Hawkins
Today I had an image of a pictorial star with the usual 5 triangular points, reminding me of a popular children's story whereby a little girl befriends a star which had fallen from the sky. She learns that, in love, she needed to release the star back into the sky, where it belongs and where it is free. Galatians 5:1 tells us "It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery". This is a good reminder that though being in God's Kingdom and obeying Him, sounds like bondage, it actually is our place of freedom as it is where we were created to be. Once in His Kingdom, we realise that outside His Kingdom there is so much that troubles us and wear us down. The words in 1 Peter 2:16 explain that our freedom is not for us to do what we want to the detriment of others. Our being in God's Kingdom is for us to always follow His ways of Love. His Spirit guides us and teaches us great and freeing Truths.
