Before this faith came,we were all held prisoners by the law. We had no freedom until God showed usthe way of faith that was coming. In other words, the law was our guardian leading us to Christ so that we could be made right with God through faith. Now the way of faith has come, and we no longer live under a guardian.” Galatians 3:23-25 NCV

I woke up each day with more fear and worry and exhaustion from my fitful nightmares. The Prince of Darkness held me captive. But no more. I now choose the way of faith.

Open my eyes to Your encouraging truths every day when I awake. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
