I was working on a washer today in a laundromat and found several dollars worth of coins. I used some of them to test the machine and the rest I took and washed and left in the sink. I saw a family of three, a mother and two girls. I walked over to get my work order signed and on the way back I saw the youngest heading towards the store her hand clenched tight and a smile on her face I heard her say "yessssssss"! I wondered what would happen if her older sister had seen her? Would she fight for the money? I think so.
I smiled, then a wave came over me. This is salvation! We find it, a gift we do not deserve we are to grab it and fight for it and hold it. It is ours for the taking.
We teach our children not to fight but maybe we should teach them to fight. Fight for what is worth the fight! Salvation from God through Christ is our most treasured prize. Will we fight for it? Will we keep it? Will we treasure it? It is not to be taken lightly but to be cherished and prized. Then when we have it we can share it because once we realized the immeasurable value of it we can share it because then we truly HAVE IT!!!!!
