I've been pretty excited about my new cell phone. My sister and I searched and debated and haggled for a few weeks trying to find the perfect "free" phone. If you know me at all, you know I love a great price. I want to get the best deal for the least amount of money. The only thing better than my 75% off clearance items from Target is something for free.
Anyone can tell you that nothing is ever truly free. Even the free phones I found were after rebate and with the addition of another costly service. Now, I know that the phone company has to make money because as we say at my house the phone company is Troy's (and our) "bread and butter", but I really did want to be a savvy consumer.
So when, I found a phone at Sam's Club for "free" with no rebate, and no costly additional services, I was thrilled. I did still have to pay the customary $18 upgrade fee, but Troy is working on getting that taken off our bill. I've been sharing my excitement about the phone deal with just about anyone that will listen. I guess I wanted to be sure and spread the word about the good deal I got, so they could benefit too.
Made me stop and think. After I read my devotional this morning, I was already convicted of the urgency to share the Good News. The Good News that Jesus died for me, and rose again that I might be saved from the punishment of my sin. The Bible tells us in Matthew 10:7-9: "As you go, preach this message: 'The kingdom of heaven is near.' Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy,drive out demons. Freely you have received, freely give.
Free, His Gift of Salvation is truly FREE! I can't do anything to earn it, there are no hidden fees, I don't have anything to add to it. It really is the best deal around. You can't beat it. So, while I want to share my savings tips with others, I certainly want to remember to have an even greater enthusiasm for the Saving Grace of Jesus. If you haven't accepted your FREE gift, now is the time.
