There was a time in my life when I was all alone.\u00a0 I was in darkness.\u00a0 I was cast out for dead.\u00a0 No one cared for my soul.\u00a0 I was cold, shivering, dying in my own iniquities.\u00a0 Have you ever had a natural experience like this?\u00a0 Perhaps you got wet in a thunderstorm or in the snow and your clothes become damp and clingy.\u00a0 You are so cold that you are shivering.\u00a0 You only want one thing and that is to be warm and snug.\u00a0 You are like a baby wanting someone to comfort it.\u00a0 Then all of a sudden someone spreads a warm, soft blanket over you.\u00a0 All of a sudden you are warm and dry.\u00a0 You feel comforted and at peace.\u00a0 This is what Christ does for you when he saves your soul.\u00a0 He spreads his skirt of love over you and covers your nakedness.\u00a0 All that misery and wretchedness is gone.\u00a0 It is like going from being naked, cold, wet, and shivering to being covered by the softest, warmest fur blanket that you could wish for.\u00a0 It happens in an instant.\u00a0 The change that salvation brings doesn\u2019t take days or years, it happens the very moment that you accept Jesus as your Savior.\u00a0 \u201cWhoosh\u201d, just like spreading a blanket.\u00a0 Thank you, Jesus, for covering my nakedness, my sin, my iniquity.<\/p>\n
