Do you feel like a slave? Most people are in a position that they work daily for the food they eat and to keep a roof over their heads. That's a subject that deserves attention on it's own but for now I want to share a verse that speaks to our attitude in this situation.
We are not actually slaves even though at times it feels like we are. We choose where we live, how we spend our money and who we associate with, those are not options for true slaves.
There actually is still slavery in the world we currently live in. It's title is "Human Trafficking" and this is something that as a follower of Christ you should want to learn about and pray against.
So even though you may think of your job as slavery it is not, you have choices and it is your choice. With that said, even if you just feel like a slave, God has given direction for you in that position~
Slaves, be obedient to those who are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in the sincerity of your heart, as to Christ; not by way of eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but as slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart.
With good will render service, as to the Lord, and not to men/ knowing that whatever good thing each one does, this he will receive back from the Lord, whether slave or free. Ephesians 6:5-8
