Heaven's Grocery Store

HEAVEN`S GROCERY STORE

As I was walking down life's highway many years ago
I came upon a sign that read Heavens Grocery Store.

When I got a little closer the doors swung open wide
And when I came to myself I was standing inside.

I saw a host of angels.

One handed me a basket and said "My child shop with care." Everything a human needed was in that grocery store And what you could not carry you could come back for more.

First I got some Patience.

Love was in that same row.

Further down was Understanding, you need that everywhere you go.

I got a box or two of Wisdom and Faith a bag or two.

And Charity of course I would need some of that too.

I couldn't miss the Holy Ghost It was all over the place.

And then some Strength and Courage to help me run this race.

My basket was getting full but I remembered I needed Grace,

And then I chose Salvation for Salvation was for free
I tried to get enough of that to do for you and me.

Then I started to the counter to pay my grocery bill,
For I thought I had everything to do the Masters will.
As I went up the aisle I saw Prayer and put that in,
For I knew when I stepped outside I would run into sin.

Peace and Joy were plentiful, the last things on the shelf.

Song and Praise were hanging near so I just helped myself.

Then I said to the angel "How how much do I owe?"
He smiled and said "Just take them everywhere you go."
Again I asked "Really now, how much do I owe?"
"My child " he said, "God paid your bill a long, long time ago."

I received this as a chain letter and created the graphics. I created the page for all to see.
