Paul tells us in Philippians 1:13 that he was "imprisonment in the cause of Christ".

When you are arrested you become a slave of those who have arrested you.

• They tell you where to go.
• They tell you when and what you will eat.
• They dictate your schedule.
• They tell you what to wear (they pick out your clothes)
• They tell you what type of work you will be doing.
  

You have no choice in the matter!

That is exactly the way Paul felt about his calling with Christ. When he was arrested on that Damascus road, he became a slave to Christ. He allowed Christ to tell him where to go. He allowed Christ to tell when and what to eat. He allowed Christ to dictate his schedule. He allowed Christ to tell him what to wear and what type of work to do. He felt as though he no choice in the matter.

We today are allowing this world to make our decisions for us. In a sense we have been arrested by this world view of how we should live. When Jesus Christ became your Savior He was also made Lord of your life. You have been arrested by Christ.

So everything you do today should be to glorify Him and not this world.

Prayer: "God, help me today to simply make you happy in everything I do."
