Moral guidelines are oppressive and legalistic only to those who still love their sin. For example, the only reason integrity should be a burden to you is if you enjoy being dishonest. Righteous deeds will be bothersome only because you prefer unrighteous ones. Speaking the truth will hurt only because it feels good to lie. Obedience to the righteous commands of God is easy for those whose hearts have been gripped by grace and whose lives are empowered by grace (Dt. 30:11; Mt. 11:29-30; 1 Jn. 5:3).

Folks, does anyone have any ideas for services for the commissioning of
missionaries? A couple from our church is retiring and going out as
missionaries. We would like to have a special service next Sunday for
commissioning, and I was wondering if anyone had any ideas as to messages
and/or other things done in a special service such as this. Your help is
GREATLY appreciated,
Thanks so much!
