Longfellow could take a worthless sheet of paper, write a poem o nit, and make it worth six thousand dollars. That's genius.
Rockefeller could sigh his name to a piece of paper and make it worth millions. That's capital.
Uncle Sam can take gold, stamp an eagle on it, and make it worth dollars. That's money.
A craftsman can take material that's worth only five dollars and make an article worth fifty dollars. That's skill.
An artist can take a fifty cent piece of canvas, paint a picture on it, and make it worth a thousand dollars. That's art.
But God--and only God--can take a life, sinful and without joy, wash it in the Blood of Christ, put His Spirit in it, and make it a blessing to humanity. That's salvation!
