21 Days To Connect: Anchoring Your College Lifeنمونہ

The freedom of a college life is both exhilarating and frightening at the same time. You are on your own. You set your own schedule. You eat when you want, sleep when you can, hang out with friends until you decide it is time to shut it down. Fear Of Missing Out is a real challenge for some. Learning to manage your time is one of the crucial tasks for college students. Hopefully your family prepared you for this new found freedom in decision making. The letter to the Galatians is Paul’s wisdom to the church in how to manage the freedom we have in Christ. Because we are sons and daughters of God through faith in Jesus we are no longer under the law of the Old Testament. That’s great news for those of us who love BACON and other things that were highly restrictive. It doesn’t mean we are totally free to do whatever we want though. It’s just that we are justified by faith in Christ rather than our own righteousness. So if you’ve made a few mistakes in your walk, lean into grace through the faith in Jesus today! “Father, thank you for giving me a new life and identity as a son or daughter in Christ Jesus through faith in Him. Lord, help me learn to manage my freedom in a way that allows me to honor you. Help me learn to balance fun, friends, class, projects, work, and most importantly time with You. Help me keep my priorities in line with the things that are important to You!”
