Have you ever watched a TV show, or a movie, or been in a situation where there was a doorperson with a clipboard standing in front of an establishment checking a list of VIPs? If you’re a “very important person,” or made reservations ahead of time, then he or she checks the list, and if you’re on it.... then you are permitted to go through the velvet ropes. I like to think that Heaven is a lot like that in a sense. But it’s not so much a VIP list as it is a book: the Lamb’s

This past Sunday after our church service, I stopped to pick up a few things at the local Walmart on my way home. I was heading down the trail mix aisle and there was a gentleman there looking at the raisins.

It started with a trip to a convenience store. I purchased a few things and headed out the door. As I was walking toward my truck I noticed a penny on the ground. It was pretty beat up and dirty, and even worse, it was on tails. (I was always told not to pick one up on tails because it was bad luck). I thought twice about it but then decided, it was money anyway, so I grabbed it and put it in my console with some other change.
