Fish out of Water
By
Noel"Spirit Rider"Bell
Isn't strange how the Lord can use different items
to paint
a picture? This happened to me the other
day.
I was watching TV and at a break started into the
kitchen
for a snack. Before I reached the kitchen, I jumped
about
five feet in the air. I was about to step on a
GOLDFISH. Some how, one of my fish jumped out of
the tank and landed on the living room rug. A good three feet or
more! I put him in a net and back in the tank.
After a few minutes he was as happy as could be.
Have you ever been between a rock and hard
place?
For example did you ever have to pick between
two friends?
If so, you were in hard place just like that
fish.
But sometimes we get out of the water
by ourselfs.
We don't turst the Lord, we sin or just do
our own thing.
The Bible tells us that Jesus will leave the
99 to look after
the one. That one could be you, me or your best
friend.
When the one is found, Jesus will place it
around his neck.
In time that sheep will want to be near
him.
The Bible goes on to say the keeper of the flock
enters by
the gate. The theif does not. The theif comes to kill, steal and destroy. In closeing I want
to ask: "are you a fish out
of water"?
Prayer:
Father,
Thank for dieing on the cross for me.
Father, I give everthing over to you and ask that
you
help me out of this hard place.
In your name
amen
