As I begin the journey of a new week, I declare that I am called to be free and every chain of addiction, every pattern of selfishness, every weight of pretending is broken off my life. I confess that I will not use my freedom as an excuse to do whatever I want, but as an opportunity to love just as Christ loved me. “This week, I choose the narrow path of humble service over the wide road of self-indulgence. I will look past my own needs so as to see the needs of others, my hands will become grace to someone struggling, my words will become hope to someone weary, and my presence will become a gift to someone lonely, I am free from me, so I can be fully given to You in Jesus mighty name, Amen.
