 “REDEMPTION CENTER!”
Ephesians 1:7
“In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace.”

Sometimes I allow my mind to drift back across the years to the pleasant days when I was young and full of answers. Now I am old and full of questions. But that is another topic altogether.

Back in the days following WWII and into the 1980's, it was common in many retail stores to receive S&H Green Stamps with every purchase. These stamps were carefully pasted inside the provided stamp collection booklet. When a sufficient number of books were full, you could take them to a Green Stamp Redemption Center and redeem a desired item from a large selection of goods (lamps, toasters, bikes, etc.). If you did not have enough books to redeem the item of choice, you could either pay extra in cash or wait until you had enough books to redeem your "prize."

God has wonderfully provided us with a "Redemption Center" and the ultimate payment has already been made -- the shed blood of our Savior and Lord, Jesus Christ. While it is free to us, it cost Christ His precious blood and the Father the death of His dear Son.

The Redemption Center is the foot of the cross. It is essential that anyone who seeks redemption may receive it, but it comes only as we personally appear and invite the Lord to come into our heart. REDEEM YOUR ETERNAL LIFE – NOW!

Blessings dear hearts. Draw near to God today and be a blessing!
