Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let
us give
thanks, by which we offer to God an acceptable worship with reverence and awe.
The love of God is something like that. It is available to everyone. The Kingdom is big
enough for
everybody.
(Hebrews
12:28
NRSV)
There is a story about a little girl who had a large collection of dolls, of every
description. It was
obvious that her dolls brought her much pleasure. A visitor asked her which of her dolls
was her
favorite. "Just a moment," she said as she rushed into another room. In a moment she
was back
with a doll that would have been rejected by Goodwill. One of the eyes was off, the
cloth hair was
hanging by a single thread, the dress was worn and dirty, one shoe was missing. The
visitor was
surprised. "Why do you love this doll so much?" she asked. The little girl answered
shyly,
"Because if I didn't nobody else would."
Dear God, thank you for the great kingdom you have given to me. Amen.
