THE PRAYFIT DEVOTION
REWARD IF FOUND
June 10, 2011Read: Mark 10
“For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” --Mark 10:45
A few weeks ago, my wife and I noticed freshly posted “LOST DOG” signs throughout the neighborhood. Every other tree bore the image of a cute, cuddly fur ball with big, sad, brown eyes. You couldn’t help but stop and read it, nor could you miss the bold words: “REWARD IF FOUND.”
Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m a dog lover for sure, but there were a lot of zeros after that dollar sign. (Josey better stay real close to home if that’s the going rate on the streets.) All I know is that two things must be true about that lost pup: 1) she’s loved and 2) her owner will pay the price to get her home.
You know where I’m going with this, so forgive the comparison, but we too have gone astray. Even on our best days, we’d be lost forever. But God loves us so much that He allowed our ransom to be nailed to a tree; reward if found.
--J.P.
FRIDAY CONVERSATION
Last Friday, we finished the week with a question. Today will be no different. This morning, in the comments section, we'd like you to weigh in with your opinions on the following two-part question -- one that is fundamental to the PrayFit mission.
>> Does God care if we are keep ourselves healthy? Or is it only our hearts that He's concerned with?
Share the question with others using the social networking tools at the top of the page, post your comments in the space provided below or on our Facebook page and have a great weekend!
