LOOKING FOR THE FOOTHOLD!

SATURDAY- Today, as you wake,, get up and breath deep,, deep within your lungs, thank God for that air,,, for you are starting your day off with Him in two ways , right from the get go.. first the gift of life to waking up.. second the breath of life of air, to breath in.. now He is two up on you,, the least you can do, is by thanking Him for this day, and asking Him to accompany you through this day.. will you? Great!

LOOKING FOR THE FOOT-HOLD

What is a foot-hold? It is something that a person can stand on and be secure,,,it can be climbing a mountain, a tree, a rope, or in the water...something you can comfortably stand on and know you are safe.
Have you ever been swimming, and get in the deep part, get a little tired,,, feet are far from the bottom,, If you touch it , your head will be under water, you will not be able to breath. You quickly swim to the side, grab hold with your arms or you swim to shallow water, put your feet down for that " foothold"...If you are in a lake or a stream, and this happens you look for that "foothold",,,quickly,,,so you don't drown....this "foot-hold" becomes the most important thing,,, the center of your life, for without it, your are lost,,dead!
How about when we are walking in the deep sea of sin? We walk, and we are constantly going into deeper,,deeper sin,,,we are going over our head and it spells sure death,,,,we are looking feverishly for that "foot-hold" of salvation and life!!! Reach your foot out ,, you just can't find a foot-hold, it seems as if it is close , but just out of reach,,, then you raise your head toward the heavens, cry out with a scream,Lord, Lord, help, me , forgive me of my sins,,, I want you and I accept you as my Lord of Redemption and Salvation,,I give you my all,,,please accept me into your fold,,,save me,,,save me,,,,all of a sudden,,you feel the solid pressure on your foot as you become stable , no more sinking,,,but the feeling of rising above this sea of sin and satan....yes,,,He answers just that quick, for He is watching and waiting,,, to pull you to safety.....yes you have just found the

FOOT-HOLD
FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE!! PRAISE HIM,,, FROM WHERE IT ALL COMES!!!

Lord, thank you for holding us all in the palm of your hand and keeping us up and out of the sea of sin...ame
