It's Never Too Late

Friday, 7 November 2008 00:00 by Charles

At Fellowship of the Parks, we say it is never too late (as long as you are breathing) to become the person God intended you to be.  Well here is a never too late story.  Seems this guy in Michigan returned a library book that was due 47 years ago.

Here is a part of the story -

Robert Nuranen handed the local librarian a book he’d checked out for a ninth-grade assignment — along with a check for 47 years worth of late fees.Nuranen said his mother misplaced the copy of “Prince of Egypt” while cleaning the house. The family came across it every so often, only to set it aside again. He found it last week while looking through a box in the attic.

“I figured I’d better get it in before we waited another 10 years,” he said after turning it in Friday with the $171.32 check. “Fifty-seven years would be embarrassing.”  (I love this line!)

Wow! I was really amazed by it! See, it’s never too late to be honest. Every students and fellow youth of today’s generation should know about this post. It was so encouraging and uplifting to know that it was never too late to do good.
