Heaven's Grocery Store

I was walking down life's pathway
Not so very long ago
When I looked up and saw a sign,
Heaven's Grocery Store.

I got a little closer
And the door swung open wide.
The next thing I knew
I was standing there inside.

I saw a host of angels.
They were standing everywhere.
One handed me a basket and said,
"My child, now shop with care.'

Everything a Christian needed
Was in that Grocery Store,
And what you couldn't carry out
You could come back next day for more.

Well, first I got some patience,
Love is in the same row.
Further down was understanding.
You need those everywhere you go.

I got a box or two of wisdom
And a bar or two of faith.
You couldn't miss the Holy Ghost
He was all over the place.

I didn't forget salvation
For salvation'that was free.
I wanted to get enough of that
To save both you and me.

There was meekness, longsuffering and gentleness
I saw these at a glance.
I knew I'd better get some.
I would never have a better chance.

I stopped to get some courage
To help me run life's race.
Then my basket was getting full
And I remembered I needed grace.

Then I started for the counter
To pay my grocery bill
I thought I had most everything
To do the Father's will.

And I saw prayer,
I just had to put that in.
I knew when I stepped outside the door,
I'd run right into sin.

This comes to you via a miracle

A miracle occurred in that I finished my sermon early. I am going to post this tip that I knew for a long time, and one that I find truly helpful.

Check this out. This is a good idea for married couples.

I think it can be used for cell groups and other occasions as well.

Personal update

On this very strange day, I have time. I hope you, my dear readers would talk to me.

Last year was a wonderful year of learning. It felt that I have lived through a decade and transformed into a man. I like myself and I believe in what I am doing. I could return to the Lord like this. Life is at a bittersweet moment that is just right.

Now, I just need more time, more life and more from God. I am not saying this because I am greedy, but truly it feels great to be really living.
