There Goes God's Nickel
Story★★★★A small boy who had been given two nickels—one for Sunday school and
the other for himself—was running
down the street one Sunday morning.
Suddenly he dropped one of his nickels.
He watched the nickel roll along the
sidewalk and then out of sight. “Well,”
he muttered, “there goes God’s nickel.”
The point
A boy running to Sunday school drops one of two nickels and assumes the lost one is God's, revealing a selfish attitude toward what belongs to God.
