Once there was a man who had the chance to have dinner with one of the wealthiest men in the city. The two men decided to go on a walk before their meal. They talked gossip, politics, and such. During their walk, the other man noticed that whenever there was a penny on the ground he would pick it up, examine it, and put it in his pocket. After four pennies, the other man finally asked why. "Why do you, one of the richest men in this whole city, spend your time on pennies among the ground?" The wealthy one chuckled. "Well, ask yourself this, what is written on the penny?" The man thought about this. "The year?" the man guessed. "Yes, but that's not what I'm looking for." The other man thought even longer. After a while, the man gave up. The wealthy one took out one of his pennies and said, "If you look close, you can see something in writing." The man saw it. "In God we trust." The wealthy man smiled. "Every time I see a penny, this is what I think. We, as the people, need to know that God is going to help us. Through joyful times, or tough times, God listens to our prayers and does what is best for us. We need to trust God and know that he will anything do for his children.
