The story goes, of an extremely wealthy man who also possessed great treasures of art, it had been a lifelong enterprise in his family to collect great works of art, the mans only boy who was very ordinary died sometime in his mid-teens. Hes father was so grief stricken over the death of his boy that within a matter of months he died also. * +

The fathers will provided everything would be sold off by auction to the highest bidder.

And there were several moments of silence as no one bid. Finally an old servant who had served on the estate a number of years bid a miniscule amount 75 Cents. There were no other bids, the auctioneer said sold for 75 Cents. * +

And then a dramatic moment came, The Sale was stopped. Because the will had further provided that whosoever bought that picture would receive all the rest of the Estate. God is not unlike that man, it is not that we loved Him, but that He Loved us First and that whosoever believeth in His Son Jesus Christ, the Wrath of God no longer abides in you but the Gift of Eternal Life, The Love of the Father, the Fellowship with the Holy Spirit. For whosoever has the Son, has the Father as well. * +
