Bible Reading: Titus 3:14, Psalm 34:13-14
Memory Verse: And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works. Hebrews 10:24(ESV)
People ask me why do good when all we receive is evil. Here is the answer: A 6 year old boy was in the market with his 4 year old sister. Suddenly the boy found that his sister was lagging behind. He stopped and looked back. His sister was standing in front of a toy shop and was watching something with great interest. The boy went back to her and asked, “Do you want something?” The sister pointed at the doll. The boy held her hand and like a responsible elder brother, gave that doll to her. The sister was very happy. The shopkeeper was watching everything and getting amused to see the matured behaviour of the boy. Now the boy came to the counter and asked the shopkeeper, “What is the cost of this doll, sir!” The shopkeeper was a cool man and had experienced the odds of life. So, he asked the boy with a lot of love and affection, “Well, what can you pay?” The boy took from his pocket all the shells that he had collected from sea shore, and gave them to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper took the shells and started counting as if they were paper money. The boy asked him worriedly, “Is it less?” The shopkeeper said,” no, no… These are more than the cost. So I will return the remaining.” Saying so, he kept only 4 shells with him and returned the remaining. The boy very happily kept those shells back in his pocket and went away with his sister.
How could shells substitute for money? A kind heart attracts other kind hearts to himself. Like the boy, do you want to receive favour, give favour.
Quote: It is what you that shall be given back unto you.
Prophetic Word: Your good shall not be turn evil, in Jesus name.
