A Lost Child.
POSTED ON: 19 June 2012 @ 2:50 AM | 0 comments
A woman lost her 2-year old child in supermarket. She was worried and went around finding his son, shouting his name with the stroller,asking everyone in the supermarket if they saw her child .One woman said,' I saw a brown hair boy ,carrying a large box out those doors(out of the supermarket).' Later she found her child strolling with large shoe box. Her son not only lost but he shoplifted a pair of men's size 13 shoes. She went closer to him and held him close instead.
As the 2-year old child's mom, she knew what would easily happened unto him if she did not find him. Her love for her son meant she would push the stroller to the end of the earth, shout his name so that she could find him. She was not angry he shoplifted. She was worried what would happened to him if she did not find him that time---her lost son.
''In 'Amazing Grace', K.W Osbeck says, 'If the New Testament teaches anything, it teaches us about God's love in searching for lost men.
Becoming a Christian in a very real sense in simply putting ourselves in the way of being found by God---to stop running from His loving pursuit. ''
Maybe now you feel you are escaping God. One adventure took you the next and suddenly you are lost, wondering if you've gone too far.
But...You haven't.
Stop.
Right where you are.
Let Him scoop you up.
And the box of things you are carrying..that box..those emotions, those mistakes, those choices you wish you would never made---GIVE IT TO HIM. He will return them to where they rightfully belong as He leads you back home...
...Because Your Heavenly Father understands and He is willing to carry you if you only allow Him to do so...
Psalm 145:18-19, "The Lord is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth. He fulfills the desires of those who fear him; he hears their cry and saves them."
