Frog in a Rut

 

January 11

 One night, when I was a boy, my mother told me a simple story. A little frog landed in the middle of a deep tire track in a muddy road. Jump as he might he couldn’t get out. The other frogs headed back to the pond for the night. Splash- little frog was back. . "How did you get out,” the others demanded?

"I just jumped out," said the exuberant little frog, “you see a truck was coming.”
This story stayed with me. Now anytime I'm stuck in a rut, I can jump free.

"For the son of man has come to seek and save that which is lost." (Luke 19:10)
