While I was walking earlier this week I spotted a familiar white pick-up cruising through our neighborhood. When I saw this truck for the very first time, I thought it was one of our neighbors. However after spotting it on several other occasions, I realized that the driver does not live in our neighborhood. He makes an appearance every Wednesday, though. Wednesday is trash day.
The driver of the truck comes through our neighborhood looking to find refuse, stuff that lacks value to its previous owner. He takes what might have been tossed into a landfill and salvages it for his own purposes.
Our God is like the man in the white pick-up. He sees us in our sin, destined for hell, and rescues us to be His forever. Although we may have been tossed out by others like yesterday's trash, in His eyes we are today's treasure.
