And Today ?
Today is a gift.
That's why we call it a present."
A Church goer wrote to the editor of a newspaper and complained that it made no sense
to go to church every Sunday.
He wrote: "I've gone for 30 years now, and in that time I have heard something like 3,000
sermons, but for the life of me, I can't remember a single one of them. So, I think I'm
wasting my time, the preachers and priests are wasting theirs by giving sermons at all."
This started a real controversy in the "Letters to the Editor" column. Much to the delight
of the editor, it went on for weeks until someone wrote this clincher:
I've been married for 30 years now. In that time my wife has cooked some 32,000 meals.
But I do know this: They all nourished me and gave me the strength I needed to do my work.
If my wife had not given me these meals, I would be physically dead today.
Likewise, if I had not gone to church for nourishment, I would be spiritually dead today!"
When you are DOWN to nothing, God is UP to something!
Thank God for our physical and our spiritual nourishment!
