I was walking down life’s highway some time ago. One day I saw a sign that read, “HEAVEN’S GROCERY STORE”. As I got a little closer, the door came open wide, And when I came to myself I was standing inside. I saw a host of ANGELS. They were standing everywhere. One handed me a basket and said, “My Child, shop with care”. Everything a human needed was in that grocery store, and what you couldn’t carry, you could come back the next day for.
First, I got some PATIENCE: LOVE was in the same row. Further down was UNDERSTANDING: you need that everywhere you go. I got a box or two of WISDOM, a bag or two of FAITH. I just couldn’t miss the HOLY GHOST, for it was all over the place. I stopped to get some STRENGTH, And COURAGE to help me run this race. By then my basket was getting full, But I remembered I needed some GRACE. I didn’t forget SALVATION, for SALVATION was free, So I tried to get enough of that to save both you and me.
Then I started up to the counter to pay my grocery bill, For I thought I had everything to do the MASTER’S will. As I went up the aisle, I saw PRAYER: I just had to put that in, For I knew when I stepped outside, I would run into sin. PEACE  AND JOY were plentiful; they were last on the shelf. SONG and PRAISE were hanging near, so I just helped myself. Then I said to the angel, “Now, how much do I owe?” He smiled and said, “Just take them everywhere you go.” Again, I smiled and said, “How much do I really owe?”
He smiled again and said, “MY CHILD, GOD PAID YOUR BILL A LONG, LONG TIME AGO.”
