Connections

Today my wife and I went to Hamrick’s in Ft. Oglethorpe.  Actually, she went to Hamrick’s and I was dragged along.  I’m sure you husbands understand.  We took our items to the check-out counter only to find the three lines backed up.  The manager stepped to an empty cash-stand and rang up a customer.  When she was finished, several customers started to go over to her counter, but she quickly told them that she was not open.  Us customers looked at each other and shrugged with frustration.  Evidently, the customer that the manager had waited on was a personal friend.  She had connections.  Hey, isn’t it good to be reminded that we as Christians have a personal connection with the Creator of the Universe? When we have a need, we don’t have to wait in a line.  We don’t have to wait our turn, because we have connections.  We can come to the dear Lord, and He will take us first!  Each one of us are first in God’s line, because we are each His dear children.  Would you like to go to the front of God’s line?  Would you like to have a personal connection with God?  Meet at church this Sunday and you can learn all about it.  I’ll save you a seat.
