Insurance of the Soul
Matthew 16:26
For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?


A little boy on his father's knee said, "Pa, is your soul insured? Why do you ask, my son? I heard Uncle George say that you had your house insured, and your life insured; but he did not believe you had thought about your soul, and he was afraid you would lose it. Won't you get it insured right away?" It was all too true; and the question led the father to seek the Divine guarantee of his soul's well-being.
