No snatching

-
I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish. — John 10:28

In the mid-1950s, General Motors displayed more at their auto shows than just cars. At one show in Miami, GM featured a display of a million one-dollar bills, as well as the Hope Diamond (the largest blue diamond in the world).

One afternoon a thunderstorm came through the city, lightning flashed, and the lights went out. Immediately truckdrivers with their flashlights rushed to the special display and formed a circle around the armed guards who were already there. The diamond and the cash were now safely guarded with two levels of security.

In John 10, Jesus described the security of His people: "I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand" (v. 28). When we know Jesus as Savior, we’re secure in His hands; we cannot lose our salvation. But there’s another level of security. Jesus continued, "My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand" (v. 29).

The Hope Diamond and the large sum of cash were quite safe with their two levels of security. How much more are we eternally safe in the hands of Jesus and His Father, the Almighty God! — Anne Cetas

More secure is no one ever

Than the loved ones of the Savior

Not yon star on high abiding

Nor the bird in home-nest hiding.— Berg
