Today's cherished Nugget from guest blogger Pastor Bill

Arnold Billie is a rural mail carrier in southern New Jersey. For the last quarter century his daily route has taken him sixty-three miles through two counties and five municipalities. Mr. Billie not only delivers mail, he brings personal service. Anything you can get at the post office you can get from Mr. Billie—stamps, money orders, and pickup service. All the customer has to do is leave the flag up on the mailbox. One elderly woman has trouble starting her lawn mower, so when she wants to use it, she leaves it by her mailbox and Mr. Billie starts it when he arrives. Who says personal service is no more?

In a society where we: Press 1 for English;  Press 2 for this; Press 3 tor that and Press 0 to speak to a representative, it is a rarity to find true personal service. This mail carrier exemplifies what Jesus was talking about in Matthew 5:41 with this command, “Whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.”

God, Give us the strength and desire to go the second mile for Your glory .  Amen.
