> 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. One handed me a basket and > said, "My Child, shop with care". Everything a human needed was in that > 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 it was all over the place. > I stopped to get some STRENGTH, and COURAGE to help me run this race. > > By 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 both you and me. > Then I started up to the counter to pay my grocery bill, > For I thought I had everything to do the MASTER'S will. > > As I went up the aisle, I saw PRAYER: > And I just had to put that in, > For I knew when I stepped outside, I would run into sin. > PEACE AND JOY were plentiful; they were last on the shelf. > SONG and PRAISE were hanging near, so I just helped myself. > > Then I said to the angel, "Now, how much do I owe?" > He smiled and said, "Just take them everywhere you go." > Again, I smiled and said, "How much do I really owe?" > He smiled again and said, > "MY CHILD, GOD PAID YOUR BILL A LONG, LONG TIME AGO." > > This notice has been sent to you for good luck.
