Slave for Life
Album: Doulos
Written by: Brad Eberly
Song description: When I was in college I struggled with the seriousness of following Jesus regardless of the cost. I came face to face with the call to surrender my life to Christ completely. That meant allowing Him to establish the plan for my future including not only my vocation, but my dreams, my friendships, my love life, my reputation, etc. All of it needed to belong to Him. I had no right to myself at all if I was going to be a bond-servant of Jesus. This song grew out of that struggle. The great news is that since saying to Jesus, “I surrender all…”, He took me seriously. Now, even when I want to take control of my own life, He steps in and reminds me I belong to Him. I am His servant/slave. That is my identity. I will never be anything other than that. And in this posture, I will always be most fulfilled.
