There was this story about a man who boarded a ship from Europe to America. This was in the olden days hence, flights were not affordable then.... 1/9

Naturally, the ship journey would take a period of months and travellers would usually take on with them clothing and a few provision incase one should get hungry at odd hours, but there was this guy... 2/9

This guy had on him only a pack of cabin biscuits and would sneakily hide and eat them whenever a meal was presented before the travellers... 3/9

Once he was doing this when a fellow traveller saw him and asked "sir, wouldn't you join us on the table for dinner?"

Shamefacedly and painfully as though he had been caught in an obscene act, He let out this words "I don't have money to pay" 😢.. 4/9

The traveller looked puzzled, waiting to hear the completion of the statement, "pay what" He asked?

"I don't have money to pay for the food" replied the first man.

5/9

The man who asked him looked at him first pitifully, then he let out a smile and started laughing almost uncontrollably...

"The food is free" He roared!

The man couldn't believe his ears, you mean all this weeks of eating cabin biscuit..

6/9

There had been provision for him at the table untouched ... pity!

This is the reality of many believers today, we are aboard the gospel but many fail to believe everything has already been paid for..

7/9

Instead of coming boldly to God, they'd rather hide away and eat the "crumbs" they came in with!

Jesus died for our sins but He didn't end there! He rose again and made us sons of God. We have access to God through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Ponder on this truth..

8/9

As you celebrate your Easter Holidays, let this be beyond rice and chicken, grasp the revelation behind this great truth that all your sins have being paid for and if you come to God, you would receive all the benefits that come with salvation!
