Saw this from Fion's blog....find it meangningful so i copied it down..
here it is..
**As I was walking down life's highway many years ago,
I came upon a sign that read "Heavens Grocery Store.
"When I got a little closer the doors swung open wideAnd when I came to myself,
I was standing inside.I saw a host of angels.They were standing everywhereOne handed me a basket and said "My child, shop with care."
Everything a human needed was in that grocery store
And what you could not carry you could come back for more
First I got some Patience.Love was in that same row.
Further down was Understanding,You need that everywhere you go.
I got a box or two of Wisdom and Faith a bag or two.
And Charity of courseI would need some of that too.
I couldn't miss the Holy GhostIt was all over the place.
And then some Strength and Courage to help me run this race.
My basket was getting full but I remembered I needed Grace,
And then I chose Salvation for Salvation was for free
I tried to get enough of that to do for you and me
Then I started to the counter to pay my grocery bill,
For I thought I had everything to do the Masters will.
As I went up the aisleI saw Prayer and put that in,
For I knew when I stepped outside I would run into sin.
Peace and Joy were plentiful the last things on the shelf.
Song and Praise were hanging near so I just helped myself.
Then I said to the angel"Now how much do I owe?"
He smiled and said "Just take them everywhere you go."
Again I asked "Really now, How much do I owe?"
"My child" he said,"God paid your bill a long long time ago."
