Possessed by a Spirit

including you who are called to belong to Jesus Christ,

Romans 1:6 ESV

I like the sound of this verse. Though I'm not the original "addressee" of the letter to the Romans (verse 7), this verse describes every one of us who has given himself to Christ at His call, leaving all to follow Him, given a new life and heart. That be me too! It is thrilling to consider those words "I belong to Jesus Christ". It goes back to verse 1, "a slave of Christ Jesus". I am possessed by Jesus. I am His possession. I am His. He owns me. He bought me. I am not my own.
