“I tell you the truth, anyone who believes has eternal life.”  John 6:47  NLT


I was on the line this evening with Famous’ pet insurance company. He may have a dental extraction tomorrow for a decaying tooth. X-rays will help determine the severity of the problem. But I was amazed at the list of exclusions in his policy just under the dental section. Add to my amazement the high cost of his monthly premiums and low benefits after the high deductible, and I wonder (and dread knowing) if he will ever need the extreme benefits that are offered.

There are many opportunities to insure ourselves against life’s calamities. The insurance does not prevent the disasters in life, but it may give you peace of mind knowing there is a financial net that may catch you. But one certainty is that your life will end. But rather than thinking of faith in Christ as your insurance police against eternal damnation, think of it as a passport to eternal life. What greater benefits could there be?


Teach me Your truth, O God, and show me the blessings of living in Your Word.
