A man told about dreaming of standing before the judgment seat of Christ. There on a table were all types of crowns, but in the middle was a huge crown decked out with jewels, by far the most beautiful of all.
He stood there and thought, “THAT MUST BE MY CROWN, for I have won millions to Christ.”
Finally an angel called his name and picked up a small crown right next to the big one for him. The man stopped the angel and asked if he knew who he was and that he had won millions to Jesus.
But the angel said, “Yes, but this is the right crown.” HE WAS SAD AND A LITTLE DISTRAUGHT OVER RECEIVING A SMALL CROWN.
Then A LITTLE ELDERLY WOMAN’S NAME WAS CALLED out, and she went up to have the large, BEAUTIFUL CROWN PLACED ON HER HEAD. So the evangelist immediately wanted to know who she was, and the angel said, “THIS IS THE WOMAN WHO PRAYERFULLY PRAYED FOR YOU.”
He received a revelation that GOD SAID MORE ABUNDANT HONOR SOMETIMES IS BESTOWED ON THOSE WE THINK TO BE LESS IMPORTANT. (1Cor. 12:22-24)
*I wonder just how many of us with our fancy titles and degrees who are always in the spotlight for all to see think the same way as this man did*
SCRIPTURE REFERENCE: (1Cor. 12:22-24) Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary: And those members of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness. For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked.
