Honesty at the Inspection Station

Today, I got my car inspected.  In the course of the inspection, I spoke to the owner and while doing so played with his cat which he kept at the shop.  The owner told me that he loved most animals and found that recounted that he had about six real friends.  I could tell that this older man was not on Facebook and did not have a plethora of friends.  But-six friends, I thought, how fortunate he was to have that many.  Friendship, love, truth, faitfulness and the like are rate commodities.  They are uncommon.  Things that are rare need to be treasured.  If you have a person you love, or a friend, then treasure that person.  I believe that the love of God is a treasure.  Jesus told a parable about a pearl of great price and a treasure in a field.  I hope that God will grant you the ability to find the treasures in your life and the good sense to treasure them.  It was nice to meet an honest man in a time when most things are anything but honest and true.
