Value

We all know value when we see it.  That is when the preacher offers to marry you for free.  That is when you find a $16.99 oil change.  That is when you find something that you like on clearance.  One of my all time life favorite values is the Hot dog/drink special at Sam’s.  How can you beat $1.50 for a large Nathan’s hot dot and a drink? Speaking of getting something for nothing, how about God's grace.  We did nothing to deserve it and we are offered it freely, simply because we are loved by God.

If you are having a bad day and everything is going wrong, roll into Sams.  Walk the isles and snack on all the samples.  On your way out, splurge for the hot dog special.  You can get onions and sour kraut with it.  It may not be really healthy, but it is a great value.  And while you are eating that, ponder the free gift of amazing grace.

It’s a beautiful day in God’s world, be sure to see the good.
