treasure is where you find it (keep looking)

"I gave my supper to a beggar.
Now, this would strike fools as foolish,
and wisemen as wise.
A fool eats his last potato;
a wise man plants it.
Apart from which, everyone knows beggars
are never what they seem"
(Jim Henson's The Storyteller, "The Story Short").















Thanks to Gillian @ http://missturner.blogspot.com/
for this wonderful quote.

Now here is my 2 cents worth
taken from another treasure trove

Hebrews 13:2
Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

Proverbs 19:17
Whoever is generous to the poor lends to the LORD,and he will repay him for his deed.


Go Plant Your Potatoes in the Fields of the Lord.

Thanks for the shout-out! And thanks for the verses... they're what I was thinking of as well, but I'm lousy for remembering where they are!

you're welcome

Bible Gateway is great for finding verses even if all you know is a phrase or a few words.

Have you used that site yet?
