2 lizards in a sink

The other day, we woke up to find 2 mature size lizards in our sink. They probably fell in and couldn't climb out of the slippery sides of the sink. When we gave it a gentle probe, they didn't move, they were not dead yet but they are probably very tired from trying to escape.

Then we had a grand idea, since none of us were brave enough to handle them, and they couldn't get out, we gentle placed an old chopping board sideways into the
sink to make a 'platform' for the lizards to just walk out. Surely this 'bridge' is the best solution.

But there was no movement.

We tried talking it out, gently 'guiding' them via a soft toilet roll, reasoning with them even. But still no movement. Finally, someone hand-handled them and moved them out towards the open window.

As i reflected that day, we are like those lizards when it came to sin. We know it is sin, but we often didnt know or forget the consequences and, fell in it ourselves and can't climb out. What we needed was a helping hand, someone brave enough, strong enough to bring us out to safety. And just like the lizards, I scurry away and very soon forgot who saved me.

Jesus, you are my Savior, let me never forget that you are my loving, all sacrificing Savior.
