Last month we heard a lot about 'gold' as we witnessed athletes from around the world vying for gold medals in their particular sport.

Here is something written by Corrie ten Boom in a book titled "Each New Day":

Panning for a Greater Gold

"Jesus paid all your sin bills on the cross. Claim the riches that are yours through Him. Live as a child of the King, not as a beggar!

"He has granted to us His precious and very great promises, that through these you may escape from the corruption that is in the world because of passion, and become partakers of the divine nature."

~ 2 Peter 1:4 RSV

"Thank You, Lord Jesus, that You have freed us from sin and unlocked a treasure chest of grace for our use. Our riches are greater than all the earth's gold and silver combined!"
