The Bible and the Coal Basket
The story is told of an
old man who lived on a farm in the mountains of eastern Kentucky with his
young grandson. Each morning, Grandpa was up early sitting at the kitchen
table reading from his old worn-out Bible. His grandson, who wanted
to be just like him, tried to imitate him in any way he could.
One day the grandson asked, "Papa,
I try to read the Bible just like you but I don't understand it, and what
I do understand I forget as soon as I close the book. What good does
reading the Bible do?" The Grandfather quietly turned from putting coal in
the stove and said, "Take this coal basket down to the river and bring
back a basket of water."
The boy
did as he was told, even though all the water leaked out before he could
get back to the house. The grandfather laughed and said, "You will have to
move a little faster next time," and sent him back to the river with the
basket to try again. This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket
was empty before he returned home.
Out of breath, he told his grandfather that it was
"impossible to carry water in a basket," and he went to get a bucket
instead. The old man said, "I don't want a bucket of water; I want a
basket of water. You can do this. You're just not trying hard enough," and
he went out the door to watch the boy try again.
At this point, the boy knew it was impossible, but he
wanted to show his grandfather that even if he ran as fast as he could,
the water would leak out before he got far at all. The boy scooped the
water and ran hard, but when he reached his grandfather the basket was
again empty.
Out of breath, he
said, "See Papa, it's useless!" "So you think it is useless?" The old man
said, "Look at the basket." The boy looked at the basket and for the first
time he realized that the basket looked different. Instead of a dirty old
coal basket, it was clean.
"Son,
that's what happens when you read the Bible. You might not understand or
remember everything, but when you read it, it will change you from the
inside out. That is the work of God in our lives. To change us from
the inside out and to slowly transform us into the image of His son. Take
time to read a portion of God's word each day."
