In Case of Emergency
Every spring my wife and I prepare ourselves: we clean out our storm shelter, prepare an emergency bag, and pay close attention to the weather. Here in the south-central United States, also called Tornado Alley, it’s important to have a severe weather plan.
In case of emergency (ICE), it’s even a contact option on cell phones these days. I’m my wife’s ICE, and vice-versa.
Question: do you have a spiritual emergency plan? Sooner or later, we’re all going to die, and afterwards comes God’s judgment (Hebrews 9:28).
In Christ alone (ICA), this is our only hope.
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus.
Romans 6:23 (NIV)
I realize this is not new information for many of you. Yet I’m reminded of the following line from the classic hymn I Love to Tell the Story:
I love to tell the story, for those who know it best seem hungering and thirsting to hear it like the Rest.
Thank you for reading. prayers and love.
