The Business of Our God Is Redemption

I read an amazing article ( https://world.wng.org/2018/04/through_fire_to_forgiveness ) in the 4/28/18 issue of World Magazine that took me back to my high school days.  The Vietnam War was a daily tragedy that we lived through as we watched the evening news.  But the image of a naked little girl fleeing her village that was being napalm bombed by the US military in one picture captured the horror of that war.  The photojournalist won a Pulitzer Prize for their work.  June Cheng's World Magazine article chronicles this little girl's life after the photo, and is a must read.   In short, God saved this little girl so that He could eventually redeem her.  He saved her from a brutal attack, and eventually she came to faith in Christ and now lives in Canada.  Think of some horrible situation that faces you or a loved one, and imagine that there's a heavenly Father, a savior, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit who as a 3 in 1 God who is in the business of taking the worst of situations and human conditions and doing a work of restoration that seems beyond miraculous.  Yet, if we could comprehend the the many acts of this God we would have faith to believe that he does works such as these daily in lives and hearts that are open to Him.
