Short Story
There is an old tale about a peasant who, while hoeing in
his field during the spring thaw, came across a snake. He raised his hoe to
kill it, but the snake begged for mercy. "I am too frozen to do you any
harm," it cried. The farmer, full of compassion, picked up the half-dead
serpent and put it into his tunic, against his chest. As he began to work, the snake
got warmer and warmer. Suddenly, the snake bit the peasant. The peasant
frantically reached into his tunic and pulled out the snake, throwing it to the
ground. "Why?" asked the man, "I befriended you. I trusted
you." "True!" hissed the snake as it slithered away, "but
do not blame me. You knew I was a snake when you picked me up."
Many people today take sin into their own bosoms and go about
their business. Someday when these things will pass away, and they are faced with
eternity, they will cry out against sin and accuse it. But it will be too late
for some! Sin will reply, "You knew I was sin! You knew that I was but for
a season. So do not blame me!"
The good news is the Lord will forgive each of
us when we sin.
We just have to confess to Him and ask to be forgiven.
FOR HE IS THE GREAT I AM
He is my best friend, my only friend. He redeemed me from
death.
He is my Jehovah Jireh my provider: He provides all my needs,
He is the great physician: He heals me in my sickness,
He is my real lover: He loves me and I love Him too.
He cares for me: He protects me wherever I go,
He guides me out of the way of destruction. He hides me in his loving arms,
He is our real joy giver: He is the real peace giver.
He is the One who lives within me: He is the Great I Am.
His
name is JESUS CHRIST!!!
