IN FRONT OF GOD

I read the story of a man who took a slip of paper and wrote upon it only three letters spelling "G-O-D." He showed it to his friend, who was plainly overcome with greed and the worship of wealth.

He took a coin, and after having placed the coin over the slip of paper, asked his friend the same question from a different perspective, "Can you see God?" Of course the man’s friend said that he could not.

So it is with all men and women in this life. Whatever things that we place in front of God will block our view of God.
