5/24 Romans 7:1-4
Now, dear brothers and sisters — you who are familiar with the law — don’t you know that the law applies only to a person who is still living? 2 Let me illustrate. When a woman marries, the law binds her to her husband as long as he is alive. But if he dies, the laws of marriage no longer apply to her. 3 So while her husband is alive, she would be committing adultery if she married another man. But if her husband dies, she is free from that law and does not commit adultery when she remarries. 4 So this is the point: The law no longer holds you in its power, because you died to its power when you died with Christ on the cross. And now you are united with the one who was raised from the dead. As a result, you can produce good fruit, that is, good deeds for God.

You now have a choice. We can know Jesus and follow Him. We are no longer in the chains of bondage to sin. We have the Living Lord Jesus resident in us and He loves us. Follow the Lord. You now have a choice.
