I was walking down life's highway a long time ago. One day I saw a sign that read "Heavens Grocery Store". As I got a little closer, the door opened wide, and when I came to , I was standing inside.

I saw a lot of angels, they were standing everywhere. One handed me a basket and said "shop with care my son". Everything we could need was in that store, and all you could carry, you could come back 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, and 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 run the race, but then my basket was getting full, I remembered I needed some grace. I didn't forget salvation, for salvation was free, so I tried to get enough for you and me.

Then I started up to the counter to pay my grocery bill, for I thought I had everything to do my fathers will. As I went up the aisle I saw a prayer, and I just had to put it in, for I knew when I stepped outside, I would lead right to sin. Peace and joy were plentiful, they were on the last shelf. Songs and praises were hanging near, so I just helped myself.

Then I said to the angel, "now how much do I owe?" she smiled and said "just take them wherever you go". Again I smiled at her and said "How much do I really owe?" She just smiled and said, "my child, Jesus paid your bill a long time ago"......
