Shop 'Til You Drop Day...God's Eternal Mall!
A Hurting
Word...
I love to shop ALMOST as much as I love to eat...and if you are like me, you enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving, STUFFED yourself, and sat down to see a newspaper full of sales--everything from A to Z--all attractively advertised to catch you, the consumer, and your stash of cash--or plastic card of credit! Shop owners grin with glee, 'cause they know it's fun, but it's not FREE! And you know you'll pay for it with hurting feet, harried nerves, and a humongous headache--not to mention hole-in-the-wallet! You STILL want to go??
Well, drop that newspaper 'cause I have GOOD NEWS for you. There's a storehouse of eternal blessings in a wonderful warehouse at God's eternal mall, and everything is free. So leave all your money and all the madness behind--all you need is your mouse--your wonderful click-me little MAC mouse (it IS a Mac, isn't it!). Although God's goodness is completely free, you've got to appropriate it, so click away! You'll find everything from A to Z below, ready to add to your spiritual shopping cart--BUT you must click on the verse to see the blessing--26 clicks and I believe you'll be a very grateful Christian. Enjoy the beauty and blessing of God's Word and thank Him for the things He's given you that money can't buy!
THANKS be to our Lord for His free, unmerited blessings on Thanksgiving Day--and EVERY day! Bookmark this page and someday when you're tired of the shopping madness and the secular materialism that surrounds you, take a few minutes to fill up your spiritual cart with God's blessings--they're free, they're eternal and they're for YOU!
And guess what! You CAN "shop 'til you drop" at God's eternal mall, for "when you have exhausted your store of endurance," when you're weary with life and all its problems--and ready to drop, God's Word promises that "The eternal God is thy refuge and underneath are the everlasting arms (Deuteronomy 33:27)." He's there to uphold and strengthen you even this day.
Just one more note: When Satan whispers in your ear that you don't have all the "things" of this world, show him your shopping cart! You're RICH in the things money can't buy--and that's all that really matters!
...and that's just a word or two from my thankful heart to yours!
"He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? (Romans 8:32 KJV)."
"Lord, sometimes I get a little tired of "things" and I just need to stop and shop at YOUR mall--where I receive eternal things that money can't buy. You've been so good to me--and I thank You with a grateful heart. In Christ's Name, Amen.
