Guilty

Even if it's a dollar note.

The church is therapeutic and good for the soul. Each Sunday when you hear the minister speaks, you will tend to reflect the value, teaching and maybe chiding upon your own life. To be honest, it is a tough job because there is bound to be some corrections be it your attitude, thoughts and actions based on the teaching of God. It is not an easy job to stay right all the time. But we can at least reconcile and be humble enough to admit mistakes. After all, the faith is a walking relationship with a Living God who is there to whisper, tell and persuade you to walk in the light.

Next, Pastor narrated that he received a torn and tattered but cellophane-taped one dollar note from a vendor while purchasing some goods. So while exiting from a mall and when given the opportunity to pay the parking toll, he simply produced that tattered note. Who with a right mind would want that note? Not that the Pastor had none when he received it except that it was just too tedious to turn back; so he graciously spared that vendor the agony of rejection.

So now Pastor had to rectify the situation himself. When the parking attendant naturally asked for a new note ... lo and behold dear Pastor's first response was a No. When else could he get rid of it? But greater than the lie was that Voice. That's a lie ; be it a small one. Sensitive to that Voice, Pastor quickly retracted his action and gave a new note to the attendant. Pastor said if he chose to ignore that, then maybe there will come a day when he can no more hear it. You become less and less sensitive and that is detrimental as we harden.

Thank you Pastor, for the sharing.
