There was a poor man living in such a shabby house that the roof leaked whenever it rained. One day a rich man prepared a new home for the poor man, but there was one stipulation; he would have to wait a month to move into the house. Although at that time nothing had really changed in the poor man¡¯s life, he came to possess hope and his life became filled with joy. In the same way, when you are forgiven of your sins through the faith in Jesus Christ and you become children of God, you can look forward to taking possession of your place in the kingdom of God. If you really believe in this fact, even if your life does not change right away, you will also be able to live a life full of thanksgiving and joy.
