THINKABOUTIT” THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Thursday; February 14, 2008

 

          Being a lover of sweets, I really enjoy Valentine’s Day.  It is one of the few days of the year we feel justified eating candy.  Hey, if someone cared for us enough to give us a treat, it would be an insult NOT to eat it!

          One of the great gifts of this day is chocolates.  I like most kinds of chocolates – as long as they are solid chocolate all the way through.  I have been known to poke through (then pass up) those chocolate creams and have had more than one false hopes when biting into a chocolate heart only to find it hollow inside.

          People are a lot like chocolates.  On the outside most of us look good; but, the true test comes from what’s on the inside.  There are a lot of people who look appealing on the outside; but, are as hollow a chocolate shell when it comes to what’s inside them.  Others, similar to the chocolate creams, look like the real thing on the surface; but, deep down, they are something much different.

          Let’s make it a point to be solid – filled with good inside and out. 

          Think about it!  For the Madison Avenue Church of Christ; this is Charlie Wharton.
