Loving Lord and Heavenly Father, what a beautiful picture of the true freedom we have in Christ, which is seen in the slave of Exodus 21 - where out of love for his master, who redeemed him from the shackles of slavery, he chooses to have his ear pierced with an awl and dedicate the rest of his life to the master whom he loves. Thank You that I have been saved from the slave market of sin through faith in Christ. I desire to be a living sacrifice and dedicate my life to Your service. I pray that I may live the rest of my life as a faithful bond-slave of the Lord Jesus Christ, in Whose name I pray, AMEN.
