Bought by the deeds of another in order to be free

Waiting – standing in line for your turn of labor
Wherever and whatever God has for me –I want it

Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
I am not ashamed for it to be known I am saved
I am not ashamed of where I go
I am not ashamed of my actions
4I am Persuaded
Romans 8:38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

I am happy with the love of Christ
I am honored with my call

I am saved by his person
I am secured by his power
I am sent to preach
6.I am sure
Romans 15:29 And I am sure that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ.
I am positive he is my saviour
I am please to be his servant
I am a partaker of his suffering
7. I am glad
Romans 16:19 For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil.
I rejoice in my salvation
I am rooted in his scriptures
I will be rewarded by my Lord
