Redemption stories

There are so many wonderful redemption stories that reflect what God has done for us. Here is another one that shows the heart of the father for his child-

Father saves three-year-old from bear in German zoo

A father has saved his three-year-old daughter from an Asian black bear after the girl climbed into the animal's enclosure in a German zoo, police say.
Both father and child were injured after the girl climbed over a fence in a private zoo in Luenebach, western Germany.
The bear hit the girl on the forehead before her father was able to snatch her away, police said.
The 34-year-old Dutch man was also attacked and his leg injured.
The girl had climbed the 1m (3ft) high fence while her parents were not watching and fell into a moat in the enclosure, a police spokeswoman said.
Her father then climbed after her.
Other visitors called an ambulance and the girl was flown to hospital by helicopter. Her father was also hospitalised.....

Here's the big question- If a father is willing to risk his all to rescue his daughter wouldn't God do the same for the children he loves? The answer is a resounding "YES!" Even if the redemption is rejected by the child God has provided it for us. Even if we choose the claws of the bear rather than the hands of father, the father has provided redemption and salvation for us. It's sad that so many prefer death rather than redemption. There is no good outcome with the bear, but wonderful love with the father. Why do we so foolishly choose death rather than life?
