Freedom!

Reading Leviticus 25 today. I know the Lord loves us so much and I am constantly amazed at the provisions he makes for us. Even when it is undeserved God wants us to have peace, he wants us to abound in joy. He loves the poor and those who are tangled up in a mess he wants to give them a way out! 

In this chapter God tells Moses when you get to the land I am bringing you too there will be reaping and sowing of the harvest for 6 years but the seventh year is a year of rest for the land. (God knows what's good for the earth He created!) then count seven sabbaths years (7X7) and you will have 49 years. The next year, the 50th year will be a year of Jubilee! The year of Jubilee was a God ordained year of pardon! People were to rerun to their possessions and family's. It was a year where liberty was proclaimed. 

I am learning more and more about the consistency of Gods desire for us to be free, free of our chains so we can love Him and seek Him with our whole heart!
