The Purpose of the Law - Galatians #7
As we have been walking through the book of Galatians, one message has come through loud and clear--we cannot relate to God on the basis of obedience to a list of commands, rules, or guidelines. God's grace is the only means we have to enter into a relationship with God and the only means we have to walk with Him every day as a follower of Christ. And as we move ahead in Galatians chapter 3 today, Paul will answer the question for us, "What is the purpose of the law, then?"

Galatians 4.1-7: sonship
Are you a slave or a son? How do you see God? Do you see Him as your Father or as a hard task master? I pray today as we continue in the letter to the Galatians that we would see God as a loving Father who wants us to fully embrace son-ship.

Recipe #2 Realistic Expectations
Recipe #2: Realistic Expectations 1. I create security when I stop working on my mate and I start working on myself. â€For we are each responsible for our own conduct." Galatians 6:5 (NLT) “And why worry about a speck in your friend's eye when you have a log in your own?†Matthew 7:3 (NLT) 2. I create security when I start working on MY heart. My heart determines my actions. “Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.†Proverbs 4:23 (NIV) “For out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks.†Matthew 12:34 “As water reflects a face, so a man's heart reflects the man.†Proverbs 27:19 “For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.†Proverbs 23:7 (NKJV) "Don't you understand?" Jesus asked him. "Anything you eat passes through the stomach and then goes out of the body. But evil words come from an evil heart and defile the person who says them. For from the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, all other sexual immorality, theft, lying, and slander. These are what defile you. Eating with unwashed hands could never defile you and make you unacceptable to God!" Matthew 15:19, 20 (NLT) My heart needs to be examined. Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. Psalm 139:23 (NIV) My heart can change. For if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by confessing with your mouth that you are saved. Romans 10:9, 10 (NLT) Jesus: “I'm here inviting outsiders, not insiders--an invitation to a changed life, changed inside and out.†Luke 5:32 (MSG)
