This is the 156th letter:
Text for the day: Joel 2:12, 13
Therefore also now, saith the Lord, turn you even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: and rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the Lord your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness
Our Theme for the day: “
A millionaire walked into a shop one day and looked around for a few minutes. When he was finish looking, he asked the store owner how much world a photo of a man hanging up behind the counter cost. The owner looked at the picture and then said to the millionaire, “it is priceless.” As the millionaire stood there he said to the owner, “I am a millionaire, and I will be willing to give you what ever is your price.” Still the owner refused. As the millionaire looked at the owner of the store, he asked him, “Why you would turn down so great an offer?” The owner said, “I know that many who come into this store and see this picture behide the counter say to themselves this looks like an ordinary picture.”
As the millionaire lift the shop that day, he finally saw that money could buy almost all things, except those things with values. This reminds me of the great value that God places on mankind. After God made the earth and all the things that are in it, he then got down on the earth, and made the crowning act of all creation, men. To God this was more valuable then all His works. After the fall of men, God could have given up and destroyed mankind.
As you look over the last 24 hours of your life, can you remember the things you’ve done; can you rightfully say that if God was in your very presents you would have done half of the things you did, or let some-one do to you? On another point do you appreciate the value God has placed on you? It is said, “When His heritage shall conscientiously follow the Word of the Lord, His blessing will rest upon them in answer to their prayers.” “Therefore also now, saith the Lord, turn you even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: and rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the Lord your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness." (Joel 2:12, 13).
I shall leave you with this poem.
