PLUCKED FROM THE FIRE

By Anita Mondragon
 
Here we are…already into the 7th day of a new year!  
 
As I sat and pondered on the things I did in the past year, I had to wonder if I truly had made a difference in someone\s life.  Oh yes, I attended church on a regular basis, helped with whatever I could, gave to the homeless, was kind…well, most of the time. I even taught a class.   I gave my tithe and then some for the needs of God’s work.  I and my husband are caretakers of our church, so we kept constant guard over God’s property; and, all these things were helpful and good.
 
However, as I recalled all of this, I asked myself and my husband this question:  “All these things were good and needful…BUT DID I PLUCK SOMEONE FROM THE FIRES OF HELL?”


THIS NEW DAY OF LIFE!

One of my life-long friends wrote the following on Facebook.  I was so moved by it, I asked her permission to use it on our blog site.  She agreed.  Thank you Cindy for the reminder!  
Take time to let these words sink in as you read the following, and enjoy! -Anita

I was talking to God this morning and I wanted to share.  Sharing is good. 
 
This is for those who need to hear this…It is a new year and a new beginning.  But everyday is a new beginning, a fresh start.  The sun goes down and the sun rises.
