The Bus Driver ...

Several years ago, a new preacher moved to Houston, Texas. 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 momentarily at the door, 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? 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 really
scary example of how much people watch us as Christians and will put us to
the test!
Always be on guard and remember (as I try to remember) that 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 I got this as A reminder.

God bless you and have a great day!
