Never Enough~

The saying goes that the only thing that a man with lots of money wants is more money.

Never Enough.

The Scripture talks about the "free gift of God"  (Romans 6:23)   Jesus Christ who bought our freedom with His death on the cross.

What a Gift!!

But I must say I have met many people who once having accepted this gift have only wanted more....free gifts.

They do not want discipline.

They do not want to practice faith.

They do not want to fight for the promises.

They do not want to live for Christ.

They just want the benefits...free...with no strings attached.


Well my friend,  I'm afraid that that thinking is wrong. 
 Let's remember for a moment why we accepted that "free gift" in the first place ~  most likely because we were desperate, helpless, hopeless and needing a Savior.
So often once we are "back on our feet" the old self rises its head and begins to demand more and more and more.  I remember my son sharing about an evening meal with friends at  Teen Challenge.  Some of the guys were complaining about the food, the curfew, the work etc etc.  He quickly reminded them that it was only weeks ago that they were eating cold scraps under a bridge.  

How quickly we forget.

Check your attitude today.  Have you said thanks lately?  Have you praised the Wonderful Savior that gave All that He had for you.  

He died.  

Believe me God is God, He would not have picked that remedy if there had been another option.  But our sin nature could be unlocked by only one thing, a pure sacrifice;

~Jesus~

What a wonderful Savior!
