Paid in full

"Congratulations! Your official loan has been paid in full!!!"


These were the words from our finance company letting us know that our car has been paid off. It is such a great feeling to know that we are the official owners of our car and that we are no longer in debt to the company each month. As I reflected on those words, I was reminded of the ultimate price that has been paid for me through Christ. 


I am in awe that something as great as salvation, not only was FREE, but was PAID IN FULL the moment I asked Jesus into my heart. There are so many things in this life that aren't free, like our car. How wonderful it is to know that the one thing that truly counts in this life is free!


It makes me sad to think of all the people out there that hear this offer and refuse it for so many silly reasons. Yet, they get a "good deal" in the mail or at the mall and jump right on it. 


I am hoping that this journey that the Lord has me on will show the world that salvation is what we all need. Not a car or a house. Not nice clothing or money in our pocket. And it is FREE!!!!!!!
