Today’s Reading:
1 Corinthians 7:17–24 (EFKS Tusi Faitau Aso)

“The one who was free when called is Christ’s slave. You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of human beings.”
(1 Corinthians 7:22–23)

This week’s EFKS theme:
Stolen from God: Slavery

A Thought for Today

Our ultimate belonging is not determined by human status.

What This Means for Us Today

Paul speaks to people living in very different circumstances, including those who were enslaved.

Yet he points them beyond social position toward their identity in Christ.

Human systems may assign status, but they cannot determine a person’s value before God.

Carry This With You

Your worth is rooted in belonging to Christ.

A Simple Prayer

Lord Jesus, remind me that I belong to You.
Keep my identity grounded in Your love.

Today’s Invitation

Notice what you have been allowing to determine your worth.

Return your identity to Christ.
