Bath Time Inspiration

I went out to look and see what some vultures were eating across the lake and saw some ducks. This duck decided it was time to freshen up. It reminded me of a favorite old hymn written by Robert Lowry (my granddad's name but no relation).

What can wash away my sin? Nothing but the blood of Jesus; What can make me whole again? Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

[Refrain] Oh! precious is the flow That makes me white as snow; No other fount I know, Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

For my pardon, this I see, Nothing but the blood of Jesus; For my cleansing this my plea, Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Nothing can for sin atone, Nothing but the blood of Jesus; Naught of good that I have done, Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

This is all my hope and peace, Nothing but the blood of Jesus; This is all my righteousness, Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Now by this I’ll overcome— Nothing but the blood of Jesus, Now by this I’ll reach my home— Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Glory! Glory! This I sing— Nothing but the blood of Jesus, All my praise for this I bring— Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

I wasn't able to see what the vulture was eating, it was too far away, but the object lesson was there. The duck was giving itself a bath and the vulture was cleaning up a carcass and God has given Jesus to cleanse the sin from our lives. Birds act with instinct but God has given us a choice as to what we will do with Jesus. Have you been made whole again?
