A pediatrician giving a little girl a check-up, looked down her ears and asked, “Do you think I’ll find Big Bird in here?” The little girl said nothing. Next, the doctor took a tongue depressor and looked down her throat. He asked, “Do you think I’ll find the Cookie Monster down there?” Again, the little girl was silent. Then the doctor put a stethoscope to her chest. As he listened to her heart beat, he asked, “Do you think I’ll hear Barney in there?” “Oh, no!” the little girl replied. “Barney’s on my underpants. Jesus is in my heart. ”
Well, I don’t know what you’ve got on your underpants, or what the state of your ears and throat may be. But I do know that if you have the spirit of Jesus in your innermost being, then you have life’s greatest treasure. “Christ in you, the hope of glory.”
