What Masters You?

Today's reading: 2 Peter 2

They promise them freedom, but they themselves are slaves of corruption; for people are slaves to whatever masters them. 2 Peter 2: 19 NRSV

For people are slaves to whatever masters them.

What masters you?

The Internet? Facebook perhaps?

Texting?

Video games?

Worry?

Food?

Exercise?

Or is it alcohol? Pornography? Drugs?

Perhaps your job is your master.

Or your family.

There are good masters and bad ones. But we can become slaves to whatever does master us.

God, we want the freedom that Christ has bought for us. Save us, Lord, from slavery to the other things in life that have become our masters.
