for his treasure’s return. His father suggested buying a new one for him, but Bruce said, “No, that would not be the one I made.” Weeks went by, and then one day a strange thing happened. Walking down the main street of his home town with his father, Bruce spied in a store window a little boat. “ Oh, Daddy,” he cried, “ there is my boat, my little red-white-and-blue boat.” “Are you sure?” his father asked. “ Oh, yes, I’m sure—see the mark on the front?” “ But, Bruce, there is a price on this boat. It is for sale,” his father con tinued. They entered the store, and Bruce, to his father’s amazement, said to the storekeeper, “ I’ve come for my boat.” “Your boat?” questioned the store keeper. “ That is not your boat.” “ But I made it,” continued Bruce. Then Bruce’s father explained to the puzzled storekeeper the story of the little red-white-and-blue boat. The storekeeper said he had bought this boat from a fisherman the very night of the big fire. Turning to Bruce, the man said, “ Laddie, I’ll tell you what I’ll do. I’ll let you have the boat for the price I paid the fisherman. W ill that be all right with you?” Bruce’s beaming face gave the an swer, so with his own money, he purchased the little boat he himself had made. Lovingly, Bruce took the little boat in his arms, and as he left the store his father heard him say, “ Little boat, you’re really twice mine now. You are mine because I made you, and mine because I bought you.” Bruce’s father thought of another relationship so like that of Bruce to his little boat. It was the relationship to his Lord and Saviour—twice His— first by creation, and then by pur chase — purchased by the precious blood of the Lord Jesus. Every Chris tian, like the little boat, is not his own, for he has been “ bought with a price” (1 Cor. 6:20).
