From The Fire.

what caught my attention for today's devo was the little phrase under each date. today's it said:

you were like a burning log snatched from a fire.

what does that POSSIBLY mean. i read. and found out.

We are the log, that has been burning in sin (fire), and through Christ, he "snatched" us out from the flames of Hell so that we could be saved. Now, there are a LOT of logs in the fire. Some have been saved, but some are still burning as you read this post. And our job is to share and help snatch them out too.

Every single day, as long as we are living upon this earth, we continue to fall short of God's glory. and sometimes we feel like we're still under his wrath as we suffer and go through life. but these sufferings, at first we trust ourselves, thinking we can do it. But as we go through it. as we learn, we realize we can only count and depend on God alone. He saved us. He rescued us. He's given us eternal life.

But now its our turn. Again, snatch the other logs from this fire. And save them. Its our job. its our purpose. its our responsibility.

are you up for the challenge?

verse of the evening: 2 Corinthians 1:9-10
9Indeed, we felt that we had received the sentence of death. But that was to make us rely not on ourselves but on God who raises the dead. 10 He delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us. On him we have set our hope that he will deliver us again.
