Thougfht For Today - October 25
A Dream Come True!
By: Robert A. Searles
Have
you ever had a dream come true? Have you ever had something wonderful
happen to you that was beyond your fondest dreams and expectations? If
you are one of us who have been saved and truly born again, you have had
this happen to you. For once God's grace has been poured out to you,
and you have been enabled by faith to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ
and have received him as your Lord and Savior, and you know that all
your sins have been forgiven and that you are on your way to heaven,
your weeping is turned to laughter; your mourning has been turned to
joy; and for the first time in your life you are set free.
When the Lord turned your captivity to freedom, it seemed too good to
be true. It seemed like a dream, and oh! the joy that filled your heart
and you wanted to jump up and shout the glad tidings and tell the whole
world.
We
are so happy over what has happened to us that we want to go nd tell
the whole world. We sorrow for those who remain in captivity to Satan,
and we go out to sow the seed of the good news of the gospel in tears,
knowing that by the grace and power of God, we shall doubtless come
again rejoicing, bringing our sheaves with us as we are promised in the
word of God.
Oh!
What a dream has come true for all of us who have put our trust in
Jesus, that sin and death would have no more power over us, and he has
turned our captivity and made us to be partakers of his glory in his
heavenly kingdom.
“When
the Lord turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that
dream. Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with
singing. Then said they among the heathen, the Lord hath done great
things for them. The Lord hath done great things for us; whereof we
are glad. Turn again our captivity, O Lord, as the streams in the
south. They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. He that goeth forth
and weepeth bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with
rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.” Psalm, 126: 1-6.
