A QUARTER
Several years ago a preacher moved to Houston, Texas. Some weeksafter he arrived, he had occasion to ride the bus from his home to thedowntown area. When he sat down, he discovered that the driver had accidentally givenhim a quarter too much change.
As he considered what to do, he thought to himself, you better givethe 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 littleamount? Anyway the bus company already gets too much fare; they will never missit. Accept it as a gift from God and keep quiet."
When his stop came, he paused momentarily at the door, then he handedthe 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 intown? I have been thinking lately about going to worship somewhere. Ijust 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 nearestlight pole, and held on, and said, "O God", I almost sold your Son for aquarter".
Our lives are the only Bible some people will ever read.
