Romans 8:32
Cheese Sandwiches
Author Peter Kreeft tells the story of a poor European family who saved for years to buy tickets to sail to America. Once at sea, they carefully rationed the cheese and bread they had brought for the journey.
After 3 days, the boy complained to his father, “I hate cheese sandwiches. If I don’t eat anything else before we get to America, I’m going to die.” Giving the boy his last nickel, the father told him to go to the ship’s galley and buy an ice-cream cone.
When the boy returned a long time later with a wide smile, his worried dad asked, “Where were you?”
“In the galley, eating three ice-cream cones and a steak dinner!”
“All that for a nickel?”
“Oh, no, the food is free,” the boy replied. “It comes with the ticket.”
