JOSHUA TIME 384

Just a quarter?
Several years ago, a new preacher moved to Houston, Texas. Someweeks after>he arrived, he had occasion to ride the bus from his home to thedowntown>area. When he sat down, he discovered that the driver hadaccidentally>given>him a quarter too much change. As he considered what to do, hethoughtto>himself, "You'd? better give the quarter back. It would bewrong tokeep>it." Then he? thought, "Oh, forget, it's only a quarter. Whowouldworry>about this little? amount. Anyway, the bus company gets toomuch fare;they>will never miss it.? Accept it as a 'gift from God' and keepquiet."When>his stop came, he paused? momentarily at the door, then hehanded the quarter to the driver and said,? "Here, you gave metoo much change.">>The driver with a smile replied,? "Aren't you the new preacher intown? I>have been thinking lately about? going to worship somewhere. Ijustwanted>to see what you would do if I gave you too much change. I'llsee youat>church on Sunday">>When the preacher? stepped off of the bus, he literallygrabbed thenearest>light pole, held? on, and said, "Oh God, I almost sold yourSon for a quarter." Our lives are the only Bible some peoplewill ever read.This is>a>really almost scary example of how much people watch us asChristiansand>will put us to the test! Always be on guard and remember (as Itry to remember) that you carry the name of Christ on yourshoulders when youcall>yourself? "Christian.">>I'm glad I got this forwarded to me as a reminder.. you? shouldforward it>too :) I hope you all have a great day!!?SUPPORT OUR TROOPS!GOD BLESS?AMERICA!!?
