Be Careful As A Child Of God: (pls Try And Read) by ud4u: 11:11am On Mar 25, 2009
BE CAREFUL AS A CHILD OF GOD,
There are eyes everywhere, So mind yourself,

Several years ago, a preacher from out-of-state accepted a call to a church in 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 him, '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, and 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 test!

Always be on guard -- and remember -- You carry the name of Christ on your shoulders
when you call yourself 'Christian.'
