Lesson From A Honey Bee
------------------------------------

Read: 2 Kings 7:1-11

------------------------------------

Let the redeemed of the Lord say so.  ~  Psalm 107:2
------------------------------------

Years ago I set out a honeycomb to feed some bees that had a hive a short distance away. To start the process I captured one bee in a cup, placed it over the honeycomb, and waited until the bee discovered the treasure. When it was filled and satisfied, it flew directly to the hive. After a moment the bee returned with a dozen others. These in turn brought many more, until finally a swarm of bees covered the comb and soon had carried all the honey to the hive.

What a lesson for us! Are we telling others about the One we have found? Christ has committed to us the proclamation of the "good news." Shall we who have found honey in the Rock -- Christ Jesus -- be less considerate of others then the bees are?

The four lepers who sat just outside the gate of Samaria, after they had found food in the tents of the Syrians who had fled in the night, passed on the good news. They said one to another, "We are not doing right. This day is a day of good news, and we remain silent... Let us go and tell the king's household" (2 Kings 7:9).

The child of God who knows the good tidings of the gospel does not do right if he fails to pass it on to others. Tell a hungry soul about Christ today.

~ M. R. De Haan, M.D.              
--------------------------------
Close to your door may be someone in sin,
O tell him the story true
Of Him who died his lost soul for to win --
O bring the one next to you!

~ Forsythe

Thought For The Day: 

Once you've tasted the Bread of Life, you'll want to share it.
