My Heero
His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be holden with the cords of his sins.
Proverbs 5:22
Solomon provides a graphical depiction of how we are tied up by of our sins. It reminds me of the old westerns where the heroine was tied to the railroad track with the old locomotive bearing down feverishly blowing the whistle. At the very last moment, the hero, wearing a white hat, swoops in at the very last moment to save the heroine. Afterwards, the heroine dreamily hugs the hero in appreciation.
Do we feel the same about our salvation? We are bound by our sins until we accept the gift of life by our Savior. Do we share the same grateful appreciation for our new life? As we go through the daily routine of life, we tend to forget the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. As we celebrate His birth, let's remember the purpose of his birth - to break us free from the bonds of our sins. Take time to thank the giver of the ultimate gift this season - our freedom from sin!
