THE PACKRAT

...............I think I must be a pack rat! I just love to save things, especially my Mother's old recipe's, and collectables, that belonged to her, or her Mother. There's just something special about saving something, and setting it aside for someone..........
Ofcourse,this pales,in comparison,when I think about all the examples, in the Bible, of how God saved His people. As the disciples were about to sink in their boat, they called out to the Master, to "save us", and He did! So many times,we read of God rescuing His people,over and over,on a daily basis. He used the good Samaritan, to rescue the man on the side of the road, but He,himself, rescued the adulterous woman....sometimes He will use us, and other times He will do the saving.We need to be ready,when He calls us!
The supreme rescue,though,was when He saved us from eternal judgement (yikes!) and presented us,blameless,before a Holy and perfect God, to live with Him,in eternity.
I don't know about you, but that sounds mighty fine to this pack rat!
