Bit of Faith
A
two minute read.......
As
I was walking down life's highway
many
years ago
I
came upon a sign that read
Heavens
Grocery Store.
When
I got a little closer
the
doors swung open wide
And when I came
to myself
I
was standing inside.
I
saw a host of angels.
They were standing everywhere
One
handed me a basket
and
said "My child shop with care."
Everything
a human needed
was
in that grocery store
And
what you could not carry
you
could come back for more
First
I got some Patience.
Love
was in that same row.
Further
down was Understanding,
you
need that everywhere you go.
I
got a box or two of Wisdom
and
Faith a bag or two.
And
Charity of course
I
would need some of that too.
I
couldn't miss the Holy Ghost
It
was all over the place.
And
then some Strength
and
Courage to help me run this race.
My
basket was getting full
but
I remembered I needed Grace,
And
then I chose Salvation for
Salvation
was for free
I
tried to get enough of that to do
for
you and me.
Then
I started to the counter
to
pay my grocery bill,
For
I thought I had everything
to
do the Masters will.
As
I went up the aisle
I
saw Prayer and put that in,
For
I knew when I stepped outside
I
would run into sin.
Peace
and Joy were plentiful,
the
last things on the shelf.
Song
and Praise were hanging near
so
I just helped myself.
Then
I said to the angel
"Now
how much do I owe?"
He
smiled and said
"Just
take them everywhere you go."
Again
I asked "Really now,
How
much do I owe?"
"My
child" he said, "God paid your bill
a
long long time ago."
