What is the thing that is really worth?

I have chosen the way of truth. (Psalm 119:30)

A [certain] man. . .loved old books. He met an acquaintance who had just thrown away a Bible that had been stored in. . .his ancestral home for generations. "I couldn't read it," the friend explained. "Somebody named Guten-something had printed it." "Not Gutenberg!" the book lover exclaimed in horror. "That Bible was one of the first books ever printed. Why, a copy just sold for over two million dollars!" His friend was unimpressed. "Mine wouldn't have brought a dollar. Some fellow named Martin Luther had scribbled all over it in German.". . .

Our culture places a high price tag on what is worthless and throws away as worthless what is of eternal value. Ask the Lord to help you discern what's worth keeping.
