My Devotional Journal: Today’s Our Daily Bread  Author -  Marvin Williams  … AT THIS LINK  -   relates the true story of some rescue workers in Pakistan, who saved those in a cable car from sure death when a cable broke (see photo), threatening those who were in the high mountain cable car from certain death.  

And the ODB author used the story to highlight what Jesus did to reach down and save all sinners who believe on Him as Messiah to be saved from their (our) sentence of death.   I’m one of those He saved.  How about you?  

                                                                    

My THANKFULNESS: ... Oh, Abba Father, thank You, King Jesus, … thank You, Lord, for saving me from the death sentence of my sin nature.   

My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, ... . I pray. again today, that all reading here will join me, … to praise and thank You, Lord, for coming to save us from our sin.        …  Amen
