Bought with a price.

1 Corinthians 7:22-24, For he who was called in the Lord as a slave is a freedman of the Lord. Likewise he who was free when called is a slave of Christ. You were bought with a price; do not become slaves of men. So, brothers, in whatever condition each was called, there let him remain with God.

Paul encourages us to be useful where we are planted, to lead the life the Lord calls us to and to serve Him there. He has paid the price for us that we could never pay and He has a purpose for us in every situation!

Thank You for using me in Your purposes every day!
