THE ETERNAL PLUS SIGN
Have you ever stopped to think that a plus sign is in the shape of a Christian cross which is
highly appropriate because the Christian cross is a plus.
BELOW...YOUR NEW ONE A DAY
MORE ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF FOREVER
One time in Calcutta, Mother Teresa was followed around all day by a man interested in her work.
When the day was through, he was totally exhausted and she seemed as fresh as when she began. He looked at her and exclaimed, “I wouldn’t do what you do for a million dollars.”
Her reply was instant. “Neither would I.” Mother Teresa lived every day of her life on the other side of forever.
A grown up child taking care of an aged parent. It is a priceless gift.
A walk by the shifting sea with the sound of God in it. It is a precious, priceless moment.
A man, a lawyer, gets $500 an hour for his words but willingly spends an hour in prayer with a friend. All free, no fee.
A gift of love. A treasure beyond compare. Everything has its price. Everything is not necessarily worth its price.
Back in the days before electricity, an old, tightfisted farmer was berating his farmhand for carrying a lighted lantern, and wasting kerosene, when he went to call on his best girl.
“Why,” he exclaimed, “when I went a-courtin’ I never carried one of them things. I always went in the dark.”
“Yes,” came back the hired-hand’s wry reply, “and look what you got.”
Too often that is our problem.
We fumble in the darkness and don’t listen to the Lord’s message, “I am the light of the world.” But, if we hear it. Believe it. Allow it to change our lives we will end up on the right side of forever.

Isaiah 55: 2
Why do you spend money on that which is not bread, and your labor on that which does not satisfy?
