Erwin Lutzer writes, There is a story, a legend that comes to us from India. A beggar saw a wealthy rajah come toward him, riding in his beautiful chariot. The beggar took the oortunity and stood by the side of the road holding out his bowl of rice, hoing for a handout. To his surrise, the rajah stoed, looked at the beggar, and said, !"i#e me some of your rice$%
The beggar was angry. To think that this wealthy rince would e&ect his rice$ "ingerly, he ga#e him one grain of rice.
!'eggar, gi#e me more of your rice$%
In anger, the beggar ga#e him another grain of rice.
!(ore lease$%
'y now the beggar was seething with resentment. )nce again he stingily ga#e the rajah another grain of rice and then walked away. As the chariot went on its way, the beggar, in his fury, looked into his bowl of rice. *e noticed something glitter. It was a grain of gold, the size of a grain of rice. *e looked more carefully and found just two more.
+or e#ery grain of rice, a grain of gold., -
Like the rajah, "od%s desire to bless is often met with resistance like the beggar. (any of us continue in siritual o#erty because we are unwilling to share.
