But God be thanked that though you were slaves of sin, yet you obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine to which you were delivered. And having been set free from sin, you became slaves of righteousness. Romans 6:17-18 (NKJV)
Paul tells the believers at Rome that God is to be thanked that they were delivered from sin. Those who had been slaves to sin. God enlightened them, they were freed from sinful ways and then started closely followed God and His teachings.
As a modern-day believer, I sometimes find it difficult to honor God by honoring His day and refraining from unnecessary purchases. I sometimes finding myself passing on information that might be considered gossip.(Do prayer needs and requests fall into this category?) Sometimes I find myself so frustrated about something that I misuse certain phrases, you know what I mean. I am not perfect. I have been enlightened and immediately seek God’s forgiveness for these transgressions.
As believers we all must (me included) strive to please Him in all we do. A friend of mine volunteers at a local nursing home. She calls bingo for the residents. She was informed that the activity budget was cut, leaving no funds for bingo prizes. She felt free to tell the church about need. In this month’s newsletter is a blurb for people of the church to donate toiletry items, clothes , and possibly candy to help the residents enjoy playing bingo. I believe my friend is striving to please God and I know she will be rewarded for her efforts.
