Lord, Help The Light Of Your Word Shine In Us By Our Words And Our Actions. May Our Sermonic Words Become Real By The Way We Live. Amen.
The story is told of a young man who at the last-minute was invited to preach at a local church down the street from where he works. On an impulse, he used as his text, “Thou shall not steal.” The next morning he stepped on the bus and handed the driver two dollars in bills. The driver handed him back his change. He stood in the rear of the bus and counted the change. There was a dime too much. His first thought was, “the bus company will never miss this dime.”
Then he quickly came to the realization that he could not keep money that did not belong to him. His spiritual integrity was on the line. He made his way to the front and said to the driver, “You gave me too much change.” Then to his surprise, the driver replied, “Yes I gave you a dime too much. I gave it to you purposely.
