Many times, we find ourselves needing rescue and wondering if anyone cares or if God hears our prayers. There is a full-scale operation underway that God put into motion before we were born! He doesn't have favorites: he loves all of us, all nations, all races, all people equally. Before we can be rescued, we have to realize that we have a need for it. Do we fight God when He tries to rescue us because we don't like the package the rescue comes in? We must remember that truth is truth no matter how we feel about it. Truth is under attack in this world. The truth is that if there is no Creator, there can be no purpose to our lives: we would all be an accident because there would be no foundation on which to build a life of purpose. What are we doing with the life that God gave us? If we have been rescued, there is a responsibility on our lives to help rescue others. Jesus says "Come with me if you want to live". He won't force us - we have to accept His offer! God withholds no good thing from us, but we must receive it.
Amen!
