THE CHOSEN FEW

In The Tract League's 

90th Annual Report is this statement

about their tract distributors.

"The Holy Spirit has raised them up.

They are:

 hard to find,

hard to train, 

 hard to manage,

and highly independent.

They belong to no one other than Jesus.

They are so single minded

that death threats do not deter them.

And even though they are very poor,

they contribute to the cost of printing

the tracts."

What a reproof to myself.

How about you?

WHY ???

WHY?

The wife's cat seems to always be in my way.

When I get up in the morning it gets in the door

as I come through.  If I am not careful, I'll trip.

When I am at the dinner table, it's hanging around

the table.  If I use the recliner to take a nap, it is on 

the floor in front of the recliner.  No matter where I 

go in the house, the cat is there.

WHY?

In the picture above.

I was waiting a few minutes before going to the 

funeral of a friend.  I looked down and the cat 

had gotten in between my feet and settled down.

WHY?

Finally it dawned on me.  The cat wants to be 

with me.  Why?, I don't know.  But apparently 

it does.

Then the Lord brought something else to my mind.

Why don't I want to be with God as much as the

cat wants to be with me?????????

Some day we will all take a final ride in one of these.

Or something used for the same purpose.  And when

we do - you can be sure that we had better be on a 

"first name" bases with our creator and life sustainer.

How much do I want to be with God now?

If I don't want to be with him now, he is not

going to want me with him then.

"So then, submit yourselves to God.

Resist the Devil, and he will run away

from you.  Come near to God, and he

will come near to you.  Wash your hands

you sinners!  Purify your hearts you 

hypocrites!"

(James 4:7,8 GNB)

TODAY'S PROMISE

"How precious, O God, is your constant love!

We find protection under the shadow

of your wings.

We feast on the abundant food you provide;

you let us drink from the river of your goodness.

You are the source of all life,

and because of your light

we see the light".

(Psalms 36:7-9 GNT)
