Over The Shoulder

you became slaves of righteousness. Romans 6:18

Choices arise in captivation. For you become obedient towards whom you serve. Selective service such as this consummates the knock off or the awe. Captive regard steers, with one glance, hostage drive at the heart. We are either enumerated by it or stained forebodingly because of it. How much more would we rather stand in awe? For “You have captivated my heart, my treasure, my bride; you have captivated my heart with one glance of your eyes, with a single jewel of your necklace” Song of Solomon 4:9. Being a slave can often times seem like a distract, heavy and hard toil and a drudge, not accommodating to our cachet but formed on the basis of custody matters, in Him we are captives and accommodated in righteousness because when He ascended on high He took prisoners captive (Psalm 68:18) meaning to un-prison us from what kind of slave we were before. So that the captivation of who we are now lays ground to a holy cessation of amazement whereby we stand captive to such a grace abounded that’s all unrestrained slaves can do. So enslaved I shall be.

To the praise of His glorious grace. Amen.
