WORTH READING 8 Nov 2006

Its Only A Quarter

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 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 Anyway
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 with a smile, replied, Aren't you the new preacher in town I
have been thinking lately about going to worship somewhere. I just
wanted to see what you would do if I gave you too much change.

When my friend stepped off the bus, he literally grabbed the nearest
light pole, and held on, and said, O God, I almost sold your Son for a
quarter.

Our lives are the only book some people will ever read.
