A BIG DECISION
A father who loves his young son dearly is visiting him in the
hospital where he is recovering from an illness. All of the
other children in the room have a fatal disease that they cannot
ever hope to recover from unless an antibody is found.
He knows
his son has the antibody in him, so he therefore cannot contract
the disease. But it also means a big decision for the father.
The doctors had come to ask him if they could use his son to save
all the other children. It would mean that his son would die and
all the other children would live.
Can you put yourself in his position for a moment?
How would YOU feel? Your son is a part of you.
You cherish him, yet feel compassion for all of the other children
and their parents. What a decision!
Now look at what God did for US. He gave us His Son’s life his
blood that will cleanse us from that nasty disease of sin. To save
all of us. Do you think any of those other parents would have hesitated
if it meant that their own child would live?
No!
Then why is it so hard for us to share what God did for us with others?
They need that antibody Christ to save them from that deadly disease.
Won’t you tell someone you love how God can save them too?
