While in a distant city, a distinguished businessman walked out of a restaurant and was immediately propositioned by a prostitute. The man inquired as to the cost for this venture. 'Fifty dollars,' she replied. He responded, 'Is that all? You mean to tell me that Jesus Christ placed such an incredibly high value on you so as to die on the cross for you, and you value yourself at only $50? You grossly underestimate your value.' She heard the gospel and gave her heart to Christ. How much is a soul worth in the eyes of Jesus? So much did Christ love us and desire to atone for our sins that He made the payment with his life. - Dr. David Sylvester, Denton, Texas, 1994
