“Yes, I am a free man. I am not anybody's slave. But I choose to serve everybody like a slave. I do that so that I can help many more people to believe in Christ.
1 Corinthians 9:19 EASY
I have the Hebrew word “ʿeḇeḏ” tattooed on my right wrist. Here’s how it’s defined in the Bible: slave, servant, subject, worshipper (of God)
This verse was one of the inspirations for my tattoo, as well as my choice to dedicate my life to the service of others. Scripture makes it clear that when we become Christ followers, We’re meant to lay down our own agenda so we can follow His, we’re challenged to die to ourselves just like He did.
Our life is no longer our own.
In essence we become voluntary slaves, but the way we serve the Lord is by serving others. Not just those in the body of Christ, but especially those who don’t know Jesus yet! We choose to become a servant, focused on loving others well, shining the light of Jesus thru our actions and our words SO THAT we can win some of them for Christ.
A read a quote: “the ONLY thing we can take to heaven when we die is OTHER PEOPLE.”
The mission at elevate is GATHER GROW GIVE, let’s make a choice to GIVE BACK everyday, to serve others joyfully.
Choose slavery w/ me today.
