Jana was teaching yesterday, discussing Ephesians 3:20-21.  She said, “we are living frozen, small, unimaginative lives… it’s time to throw off the fetters.”

We see a word, we’ve heard it, we don’t often think about what it means.
Fetter – “a chain or manacle used to restrain a prisoner, typically placed around the ankles.”

What commitments, coping mechanisms, fears, anxieties, or worries have you living in less than you are capable of?  As Kris Vallotton might ask, what would you do with your life if you were ten times bolder?  If you’re not doing that now, you have given in to fear.

Today’s a new day, return to the source, remember who you are and get back at it.

 

Now to him who is able to do above and beyond all that we ask or think according to the power that works in us— to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
Ephesians 3:20-21 CSB
