Do You Froogle?


It's easy- in your browser type: www.froogle.com. (the period at the end isn't necessary) You'll see a screen that looks a lot like google- in the search window type the name of any product you've thought about purchasing and presto chango- there's a list of the entire internets marketplace and the price listings for the savvy comparison shopper. For example- let's try one together -check out the deal of the day in my side bar - look to the immediate right on your screen. Click it and you'll find the DeWalt 36v Lithium Ion 4 tool cordless combo kit at a crazy low price. Then take the name of the tool kit - DeWalt DCX6401 - type it into froogle and you get something that looks like this.

Pretty cool! Test it out on a few things. What's on your desk? What kind of shoes are you wearing? What kind of computer do you have? Check their replacement value, then be ready to shop with the power of the internet at your fingertips... unless of course you lose them to one of the two very cool saws in the DeWalt kit!

Imagine if you could froogle your friends, your fiance, your church... that'd take the mystery out of a whole bunch of up and coming challenges. God keeps that part of life a mystery, for good reason. Think of the number of people we'd ignore because they just didn't seem of value to the world. The value God places on each of us is why we celebrate Easter. He loves us so much He was willing to give His Only Son, Jesus. No froogle necessary- you and me -no Higher Price has ever been paid for anything in all creation.

Things and people... we get our values confused - not God. We value things, spend our lives chasing them. He values people, created us and gave everything to redeem us. What a great God. What a Loving Father. What a Fantastic Reason to Celebrate Easter!

blessings,

Eric

ps
be careful with those tools!
