Do You Have The Combination?

Life can be likened to a combination safe. Within the safe is happiness, but one must learn the three digit combination to open the door.

The first digit is found by turning the dial to the right, lining oneself up with unadulterated Gospel Message, receiving the forgiveness of God, and the assurance of a home in Heaven when one’s time on Earth is over.

One must then move on by turning the dial to the left and lining oneself up by extending the same degree of forgiveness to those who have offended you.

Finally, one must move on by turning the dial back to right and lining one up by forgiving oneself.

Having set the dial by lining up all three digits of the combination, the lever can then be moved to open the door, so that you can take possession of the happiness that has been sitting there all along.

One can waste a lot of time, trying other combinations. But not only will the door remain closed, such efforts will result in a life of frustration, strife, and self-induced misery.
