A CHRISTIAN
Several years ago, a preacher from out-
of-state accepted a call to a church in
Houston Texas, USA. Some weeks after
he arrived, he had an occasion to ride
the bus from his home to the downtown area. When he sat down, he discovered
that the driver had accidentally given him
a quarter too much change. As he
considered what to do, he thought to
himself, 'You'd better give the 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
little amount? Anyway, the bus company
gets too much fare; they will never miss
it. Accept it as a 'gift from God' and keep
quiet.' *

When his stop came, he paused shortly at the door and then he handed
the 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 in town? ''Yes' he
replied. 'Well, I have been thinking a lot lately about going somewhere to
worship. I just wanted to see what you
would do if I gave you too much change.
I'll see you at church on Sunday.' *

When the preacher stepped off of the
bus, he literally grabbed the nearest light
pole, held on, and said, 'Oh God, I almost
sold your Son for a quarter.' Our lives are
the only Bible some people will ever read.
This is a scary example of how much people watch us as Christians, and will
put us to the test! Always be on guard --
and remember You carry the name of
Christ on your shoulders when you call
yourself 'Christian.' *

Watch your thoughts; they become
words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become
character. Watch your character; it becomes your
destiny. I'm glad a friend forwarded this to me as
a reminder. So, I choose to forward it to
you - my friends. God bless you! I hope
you are having a wonderful day! If you
don't pass this on to anybody, nothing
bad will happen; but, if you do, you will have ministered to someone. The Will of
God will never take you to where the
Grace of God will not PROTECT you *

The same thing happend to me, but at the food store. I called the cashier lady when i got home, and gave her back her money. Its challenging. And true, we need to be on our guard always. *
