THE PERFECT GIFT



I remember the day, that my Daddy bought me, my very first car, in 1964! It was a black Plymouth Road King, complete with a running board,and the original tires, and paint job. It was considered an antique, but oh,how I loved "Francis"!....That's what I called him(Sir Francis Wallace) He purchased the car for me, even though I didn't deserve it, because he loved me......
I will never,ever forget what he did,or the gift.
Now, more importantly,I think about, how my Heavenly Father purchased my Salvation for me. It was, indeed,a gift, that I didn't deserve at all, for I have so much "sinful gunk" in my life, and yet, God chose Jesus to purchase this special gift for me anyway. He bought it with His life, because He loved me........
I will never, ever forget what He did,or the gift.
My car cost $150.00;pretty steep for my Daddy back in 1964.......
My Salvation cost Jesus His life; pretty steep for my Savior too,but priceless to me!
We need to do some heavy duty "thanking" on our next Father's Day....and each day too!
