Our little grandson Gus
is my perfect picture of salvation.
Soon after he was born,
he was abandoned on the streets of Ethiopia.
He could have stayed right there to starve
and possibly die,
but someone found him,
someone lifted him up in their arms,
and brought him to a place of safety.
He was adopted.
He has a home,
a mother and a father,
a sister and a brother.
He was saved!
When we are born,
we are lost in our sins,
we are separated from our Father in heaven.
Left in that state without God
we would one day die
and be separated from Him forever.
But God reached down to lift us up.
He offered
His Son Jesus Christ
to be the sacrifice for our sin.
He put our sin debt on Jesus
when He died on the cross,
and accepted what He did on our behalf.
God is our Father.
True believers are our sisters and brothers.
We have a home in heaven waiting for us.
We are saved.
O heavenly Father,
thank you for saving us,
for giving us a safe place to land.
I love you!!!!!
