Sea turtles are one of God's most amazing creatures! Their born in the sand emerging out of their eggs and head straight for the sea, there the young turtles struggle to survive with the many dangers like fish and other predators, which they constantly have to face throughout their lives until they are grown and the dangers lessen. So why don't the turtles stay on the beach where there is less danger and more safety? Do they know of the dangers that await them in the sea? The young turtles do not know danger nor do they stay on the beach where it is safe because if they stay too long on the beach danger lies where it seems to be the most safe, you see if they do not leave they with shrivel up and die. They have to face the danger in order to live, they take the risk of the sea and only a few make it nevertheless they answer the call of the sea. Like Sea turtles each person has to make the decision to serve God and face the trials and problems this world throws at us, to face persecution or act like the world and stay where it is "safe". Many people hear God calling reaching out to them, some answer the call and fewer make it.
Matthew 20:16 (King James Version) "16So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen."
WILL YOU ANSWER THE CALL JESUS HAS FOR YOU?
