Slavery to Righteousness Leading to Holiness
Romans 6:19

Romans 6:19 I am speaking in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh. Just as you used to offer the parts of your body in slavery to impurity and to escalating wickedness, so now offer them in slavery to righteousness leading to holiness.
Each day you choose how you spend your time and what you give yourself to. Before Christ, you offered your life to things that were sinful. But now, as a follower of Jesus, you have been given the power to resist sin.
Use that power to choose what is right. Make this a regular pattern in your life. As you do, you are offering yourself as a servant to righteousness.
This daily choice to offer yourself to God leads to a life of holiness. Offer yourself to Him today. ~ Jeff M Newman
