Take this seed of a thought below
and turn it into a wisdom tree.
Would you be more beautiful, more
handsome? Then get a faithlift...it'll
show on your face. It really will!
There is an ancient fable about a crane that is wading in a stream looking for snails.
A beautiful swan lands nearby.
The crane has never seen a swan before so he asks, “And what are you?”
“I am a swan,” comes back the reply.
“And where did you come from?”
“Heaven,” answers the swan. “Heaven? And what is that?” asks the crane.
The swan eagerly begins to explain how it is a place of great beauty and glory. He speaks of a new Jerusalem, a city of pure gold with jasper walls and pearly gates. He describes a pure river of the water of life, clear as crystal.”
At that point, the crane interrupts him and asks, “Are there any snails in heaven?”
“No, I am afraid not,” replies the swan.
“Then I don’t care to go there,” came back the crane’s decisive reply, “I like snails!”
What we decide to like, to seek, to make number one on our priority list helps to decide whether we end up on the right side of forever.
Psalms 84:11-12 NIV) “For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD bestows favor and honor; no good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless. O LORD Almighty, blessed is the man who trusts in you.”
