It Makes Sense to Cry for Help
January 24
Last week, while sitting poolside in St Petersburg, Florida I noticed a duck of some sort standing by the pool ladder. Within seconds the duck dove right into the pool and started swimming underwater.
There was a young boy in the pool and he became hysterical screaming for his "DAD" to get the duck out of the pool. The father jumped in and tried to splash the duck, but it continued swimming around the pool. It became obvious the duck had a broken wing and could not fly.
The cries of the young boy spoke volumes. He had total confidence that "Dad" could and would protect him. We have the same kind of confidence available to us.
"Abba, Father! Help!" "For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, 'Abba! Father!'" Romans 8:15
Thank You, Lord, for your protective covering over us. How blessed we are to serve a God who listens to our cries with compassion. A God who loves his children deeply. We are grateful. In Jesus' name, Amen.
