I want to share with you a story that I came across, hope you enjoy so here it goes:
A young man once received a letter from a lawyer stating that his grandmother had left him an inheritance. To his astonishment, it was $50,000 plus “my bible and all it contains”. The story gets better….
The youth was delighted to receive the money. However, he knew what the bible contained, and because he wasn’t into religion he didn’t bother to open it. Instead, he put it on a high shelf. He gambled the $50,000 and over the next fifty years he lived scraping for every meal.
Finally, he had to move with his relatives. When he cleaned out his room, he reached up to get the dusty old bible. As he took it down, his trembling hands dropped it onto the floor, flinging open to reveal a $100 bill between every page. The man lived as someone who could not support himself except for charity. He thought he knew what the bible “contained”.
The moral of the story is this: between every page lies your inheritance. Your inheritance is found in God’s word. You want to find gold and silver, open God's word. It is our treasure chest.
I challenge you today to make a commitment to read God's word every single day. It will not only change your present, your outlook but your life.
Be blessed, stay in God’s presence! We love you!
In His Grip,
