The Missing MoneyAndy and Sally, an elderly couple, were celebrating their sixtieth anniversary. The couple had married as childhood sweethearts and had recently moved back to their old neighborhood after they retired.


Holding hands, as they always did, they walked back to their old grade school. It was not locked, so they entered, and found the old desk they\u2019d shared, where Andy had carved \u201cI love you, Sally.\u201d\xa0It was such a cherished memory as those days came rushing back to both of them.\xa0They were truly blessed.


On their way back home, they took some side roads they used to walk along when they were young.\xa0Suddenly, an armored car went speeding by, and a bag of money popped out of the back door, which was not securely fastened, and fell on the road practically landing at their feet. Sally quickly picked it up, but not sure what to do with it; they took it home. There, she counted the money and found out that it contained fifty-thousand dollars in new $20.00 bills!


Andy was beside himself, as he had never seen so much money at one time.\xa0He exclaimed, \u201cWe\u2019ve got to give it back.\u201d


Sally wasn\u2019t so sure as she said, \u201cFinders keepers \u2013 losers weepers, besides that, we don\u2019t even know the name of the company whose truck it fell from.\u201d Sally put the money back in the bag and hid it in their attic.


The next day, two FBI agents were canvassing house to house in the neighborhood looking for the money.\xa0They came up to Sally and Andy\u2019s home and knocked on the door. \u201cPardon me, but did either of you find a bag that fell out of an armored car yesterday?\u201dSally said, \u201cNo, we don\u2019t know anything about it.\u201d


Andy could not keep quiet and said, \u201cShe\u2019s lying. She hid it up in the attic.\u201d


Sally said, \u201cOh, officers, don\u2019t believe him; poor Andy is getting senile.\u201d


The agents turned to Andy and began to question him.


The lead agent says: \u201cTell us the story from the beginning.\u201d


Andy said, \u201cWell, you see officer, it all started when Sally and I were walking home from grade school hand in hand just yesterday...\u201d


The other FBI agent turns to her partner and says, \u201cWe\u2019re outta here.\u201d


I hope that brought a smile to your face today.\xa0If it did pass your smile onto some else, we all could use a kind smile each day.\xa0Our Thursday thought is, \u201cWe will always be friends until we are old and senile\u2026then we can be new friends.\u201d\xa0


Here is our verse for today:


Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes+12%3A13-14&version=NLT)


That\u2019s the whole story. Here now is my final conclusion: Fear God and obey his commands, for this is everyone\u2019s duty. God will judge us for everything we do, including every secret thing, whether good or bad.


Just as you...
