I just bought my new piano!
Come, let me be a salesman for a little while. It's a German piano... uh.. upright... uh... selling outside in stores for almost 10K.. but I got it through a private deal so it was cheaper.. about 6K? *happy grin* Went to test it out and stuff, nice touch, elegant, oh and the piano keys cloth is black and so cool! Haha ok never mind.
Jem's Salvation....
I was on my way home, and held the lift on the ground floor when it came for a crowd of people coming out, and there was this woman who beamed at me, smiled and said 'thank you!' in this really sincere and chirpy tone, as if my little action meant a lot. And there arrived a general feeling of goodness in the atmosphere, you really could feel it. I mean, it was such a hot and humid day, I couldnt wait to get home, and the heat was enough to make anyone grouchy. And her obvious appreciation for a little act was just so lifting. See? Little things do matter, and saying thank you to a stranger can really make that stranger's day sometimes! Ok maybe not day, but at least for quite a while.
Anyway, to add on to it, she took out this leaflet, which was about God's Word, a story was about this greedy Man who travelled to a foreign land to obtain the ultimate jewel. But on his way home, tradegy strucked and as he breathed his last, it was then he realized that the gift of life is far greater than the most precious of jewels. After that the passage went on to talk about the soul, and to speak of God's sacrifice of His Son.
Anyway, the moral is, I guess He knows when His child is drifting, and He finds ways to touch us and bring us closer to HIm. A simple act of a lift door, and a simple show of appreciation, goes a long way. And we should all learn this lesson.
As she walked away, she exclaimed, ' Jesus loves you!' how true... and how timely. Praise God!
