Life Sentence

As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life
worthy of the calling you have received.

Ephesians 4:1, New International Version


These two items do not usually go together for a recipe of joy.

Being a prisoner and living a worthy life. But as I think of the ramifications of being a prisoner;


The prison controls you
The prison provides your food
The prison provides your housing
The prison provides your protection


The Lord as my "prison" is a great thing and a privilege.

God protects me

God Provides for me

God LOVES me, FOREVER

That is a life sentence, worth living for!

Lord, protect me, love me, provide for me as you mold me in to who you want me to be.
