He Won’t Let Us Go
28 I give them eternal life, and they shall
never perish; no one will snatch them out of My hand. John
10:28
Today's Scripture & Insight:
John
10:22-30
Julio was biking across the George Washington
Bridge – a busy, double-decked thoroughfare connecting New York City and New Jersey
– when he encountered a life-or-death situation. A man was standing on a ledge
over the Hudson River preparing to jump. Knowing that the police wouldn’t
arrive in time, Julio acted quickly. He recalls getting off his bike and
spreading out his arms, saying something like: “Don’t do it. We love you.”
Then, like a shepherd with a crook, he grabbed the distraught man, and with the
help of another passerby, brought him to safety. According to reports, Julio
wouldn’t let go of the man, even after he was safe.
Two millennia earlier, in a life-or-death
situation, Jesus, the Good Shepherd, said He would lay down His life to save
and never let go of those who believed in Him. He summarized how He would bless
His sheep: they would know Him personally, have the gift of eternal life, would
never perish, and would be secure in His care. This security didn’t depend on
the ability of the frail and feeble sheep, but on the sufficiency of the
Shepherd who’ll never let one be snatched “out of (His) hand.” (John 10:28-29)
When we were distraught and feeling hopeless,
Jesus rescued us; now we can feel safe and secure in our relationship with Him.
He loves us, pursues us, finds us, saves us and promises to never let us go.
