The Selah -- Finders Keepers

For us many times we feel like we've failed in ife. I know I have. This morning while I was on the way to work I was thinking, 'what would people think of me? Good Lord, what a looser'.

Then I felt this burst of life in my heart accompanied by the words 'Finders Keepers Loosers Weepers'.

As I meditated on that, the Lord began show me the woman sweeping her house for the lost coin.

We may be think that we're 'Loosers Weepers' but for God, He looks at us and thinks 'Finders Keeprs'.

We often say we 'found Jesus'. But the truth of the matter is that He found us. And He certainly intends to hold on to us.

To Him, we're like a man who found buried treasure! The Bible tells of a man who sold all he had to buy the pearl of great price. Jesus gave up Heaven to die on the cross so that you and I could enjoy heaven on earth today as accepted children to the Father.

I once was lost, but now I'm found, was blind but now I see.

Amazing grace
How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now I'm found
Was blind, but now I see
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed
My chains are gone
I've been set free
My God, my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood His mercy rains
Unending love, Amazing grace

'Do you want to be important to man or to me?' I hear Him say.

To You Lord,to You.
