Never Loose Any Coin
In olden days there is an ritual where in-laws give 10 silver coins to bride before marriage.Bride should carefully keep them with her and should show them at the time of marriage.If she loose any single coin, then she is not eligible for marriage.
One lady from those days lost one coin at the time of her marriage.She became very tensed and searched her entire home.Time is nearing by but she did not find the coin.She thought 'I should have been very careful with the coins'. Without loosing her hope she sweep each and every corner of the house and searched with the light (Luke 15:8). At last she found the coin and calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin that I had lost’. Later her marriage went very well.The lady protected those 10 coins till her last breath and the couple lived happily ever after.
In the same way each and every person is born with 10 silver Coins.Here, the Ten silver coins are The Ten Commandments and we all are the brides. You should be very careful with those coins and should not loose any one coin.Here sweep the house means to clean the bad things in us. Read the Bible daily to clean ourselves and to receive Gods salvation. The lady lost and found the missing coin with the Light, here Light means our God (Psalm 27:1 / John 12:46). Believe in Jesus Christ to accept Him as your Savior, confess and repent your sins. So that you can find the missing coin if you ever lost any coin.
May you never loose any coin.
