RELAX + REFOCUS
Center yourself by breathing in and out. Relax your neck and take time to let your muscles relax. Then read the passage aloud slowly. Take time to let the words “fall on your ear.”
READ GALATIANS 4:4-7
But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons. And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, “Abba! Father!” So you are no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir through God. Galatians 4:4-7
