I absolutely love frogs. I have loved them from the time that I caught one from the pond in our back yard, and I will love them forever. I saw this video today in an e-mail, and I just started laughing after watching it. I knew that in the winter, frogs freeze, but I never realized that they completely froze over. And that their hearts stop beating! Craziness!
The first thing that popped into my mind as I watched the sun slowly warm the little amphibian was how Jesus does this for me. I am a sleepy, sometimes frozen-up little lady and Christ's warmth makes my heart beat again. Ephesians 5:14 says:
“Wake up, sleeper,
rise from the dead,
and Christ will shine on you.”
rise from the dead,
and Christ will shine on you.”
I just think it's so interested how I feel like I have spent so much of my time in life asleep. When I met Jesus, it really was like waking up. Again and again and again. It's also quite ironic that I saw this video today because in less than 12 hours, I will be stepping off of an airplane into a climate unlike any I have seen in quite some time. 85 degrees Fahrenheit, baby. Here I come.
