Sin

Once there was a snowflake, a teeny tiny snowflake...and it fell from the sky onto the top of a hill, and then another fell and another and another, until they formed a ball. And that ball grew in size with each snowflake that fell. And then the ball became so big that it started to roll down the hill, but this wasn't just any hill it was a HUGE slippery hill. And as the snowflakes continued to fall onto this ball, the ball continued to grow in size. It raced down the hill growing bigger and bigger. And then one day it stopped right on top of a girl. And she was buried, lost under all of those teeny tiny snowflakes that together formed the biggest snow ball. She was trapped inside that snow ball and couldn't find her way out.

One day, the girl, she saw a hand reaching into the midst of that snow ball. The only hand that could pull her out of the intricate web of lies she found her self trapped inside of. She knew her Savior had come for her, had come to show her that she was worth saving, that she didn't have to trapped inside that snow ball, that she could walk in beauty and newness of life.That he had given his life that she might have hers with him in eternity With the love of her Savior holding her she stepped out of the snow ball and began life again, leaving all those little lies behind her, keeping her eyes fixed on her Savior and all he had done for her and the children he loved.

Jesus, Thank you that even though I stumble and fall into lies, that you send people who love me to help me remember I'm no longer stuck inside the snow ball. That I am found in YOU, that I'm made new and I can walk in your glorious light knowing how deeply loved and valuable I am. I love you Lord, help me to remember this when I lose sight of just how precious I am to YOU.
