REPUTATION
and CHARACTER
A single newspaper report gives you your
reputation;
A life of toil gives you your
character.
Reputation makes you rich or makes you
poor;
Character makes you happy or makes you
miserable.
Reputation
is what men say about you on your tombstone;
Character
is what the Angels say about you before the throne of
God.
--William

HEAVEN’S GROCERY
STORE
I was walking down life's
highway a long time ago.
One day I saw a sign that
read
Heaven's
Grocery Store.
As I got a little
closer, the door came open wide,
And when I came to
myself, I was standing inside.
I saw a host of
angels; they were standing everywhere.
And one angel said,"
My child shop with care."
Everything a Christian
needs was in the grocery store.
And all you couldn't carry
you could come back the next day for more.
First I got
some PATIENCE, LOVE
was in the same row.
Further down was UNDERSTANDING, you
need that everywhere you go.
I got a box or two of WISDOM, a bag or
two of FAITH.
I just
couldn't miss the HOLY
GHOST for He was all over the place.
I
stopped to get some STRENGTH &
COURAGE
to help me run the race.
But then my basket was
getting full, but I remembered I needed some GRACE.
I didn't
forget SALVATION,
for salvation
was free.
So, I tried to get enough of that to
save you and me.
Then I started to the counter to pay my
grocery bill.
For I thought I had everything to do my
Masters will.
As I went up the aisle, I saw PRAYER and just had to
put that in.
For I knew when I stepped outside, I would run
right into sin.
PEACE and JOY were
plentiful, they were on the last shelf.
SONG and PRAISES were hanging
near so I just helped myself.
I asked, How much do I
owe?
He just
smiled and said, just take them everywhere you go.
Then
I said, How much do I really owe?
He smiled and said, My child,
Jesus paid your bill a long time ago.
