Here is something I should share.

There is a story about a man some time ago, who wanted to go to America. He saved up all his money, worked hard till he had the amount by which he could buy a ticket on a boat heading for America. He got the ticket and he had only enough to buy a bag ful of cheese and crackers to eat on the two week journey. Aboard at meal times he would go sit in a corner somewhere and eat his cheese and crackers, as he would see the other passangers eat at the dinner tables, smell the delicious food of the banquets, he would long for that. But he knew that he did not have any money. This kept on for a couple of days until one person came up to him and asked, Sir I couldn't help but notice that everyday so far at meal times you would sit here and eat cheese and crackers, why dont you come and join us at the dinner tables, he ask him. The man replied ashamedly, I have no money for this food, I have spent all I had on this boat ticket. The other man looked at him in amazement and said to him, Sir dont you know that the meals are included in the ticket?

This is so true today, we have so little of what God has for us. When Jesus died on the cross for us all, rose triumphant over sin and death. This is only what many think has happened and given to us. When this happened many more things became available to God's children. Yet many are still where they are, because they are unaware or dont know what God has for them. We must claim what God Has already given us. It is rightfully ours. This story goes great with that. It is already paid for. Receive it, claim it in Jesus mighty name.

God Bless
