When Queen =
Victoria reigned in England, she occasionally would visit some of the =
humble cottages of her subjects. One time she entered the home of a =
widow and stayed to enjoy a brief period of Christian =
fellowship.
Later, the poor =
woman was taunted by her worldly neighbors. "Granny," they =
said, "who’s the most honored guest you’ve ever entertained in your =
home?" They expected her to say it was Jesus, for despite their =
constant ridicule of her Christian witness, they recognized her deep =
spirituality.
But to their =
surprise she answered, "The most honored guest I’ve entertained is =
Her Majesty the =
Queen."
"Did you =
say the Queen? Ah, we caught you this time! How about this Jesus you’re =
always talking about? Isn’t He your most honored =
guest?"
Her answer was =
quick and scriptural, "NO, indeed! Jesus is NOT a guest. He LIVES =
here!"
