WELCOME
Something To Think About!
Several years ago a preacher
moved to Houston, Texas.
Some weeks after he arrived,
he had occasion to
ride the bus from his home
to the downtown area.
When he sat down, he discovered
that the driver had
accidentally given him a quarter
too much in change. As
he considered what to do, he
thought to himself,
"you better give the quarter
back. It would be
wrong to keep it."
Then he thought, "Oh, forget
it. It's only a quarter.
Who would worry about this
little amount? The bus
company already gets too much
fare; they will never
miss it. Accept it as a gift
from God, and keep quiet."
When his stop came, he paused
momentarily at the door,
then he handed the quarter
to the driver and said,
"Here, you gave me too much
change."
The driver replied with a smile,
"Aren't you the new
preacher in town? I have been
thinking about going to
worship somewhere. I just wanted
to see what you would
do if I gave you too much change.
I'll be in church on
Sunday."
When the preacher stepped off
the bus, he literally
grabbed the nearest light pole,
and held on, and said,
"Oh, God. I almost sold
your Son for a quarter."
Our lives are the only Bible
some people will ever read.
GOD BLESS YOU
