THE MIRACLE

Sun, 02 Aug 2009 14:48 EST

THE MIRACLE

A little girl went to her bedroom and pulled a glass jelly jar from it's hiding place in the closet.

She poured the change out on the floor and counted it carefully.Three times,even the Total had to be exactly perfect. No change here for mistake.

Carefull placing the coins back in jar, and twisting on the cap, she slipped out at the back door and made her way 6 blocks to Rexalls Drugs Store with the Big Red Indian Chief sign above the door.

She waited patiently for the pharmacist to give her some attention. But he was to busy at this moment. Tess twisted her feet make a scuffing noise. Nothing. She cleared her throat with the most disgusting sound she could muster. No good. Finally she took a quarter from her jar and banged it on the glass counter.That did it !!

Hi..What do you want ? The pharmacist asked with annoyed tone of voice..Iam talking with my brother from Chicago whom i have not seen in ages. " He said without waiting for reply for his question..

Well !! I want to talk to you about my brother." Tess answer back with the same annoyed tone." He is really , really sick. And I want to buy a miracle.

I beg your pardon ." said the pharmacist

His name is Andrew and he has something bad growing inside his head and my daddy says only a MIRACLE can save him now. So how much does a MIRACLE cost ?

" We dont sell miracle here, little girl " I am sorry but I can't help you !! A pharmacist says softening a little.

Listen , I have the money to pay for it. If it is'nt enough. I will get the rest. Just tell me how much it costs.

The pharmacist brother was a well dressed men.He stooped down and asked the little girl. What kind of a Miracle does your brother need ?''

" I dont know " Tess reply with her eyes welling up. I just know that he is really sick, and mommy said that he needed an operation. But my daddy can't pay for it. So I want to used my money.

How much do you have ? Asked the well dressed man from Chicago.

" One dollars and eleven cents!! Tess answer barely audibly.

And it's all the money I have,but I can get some more if I need to.

Well ! What a coincidence, smiled a man" A dollar and eleven cents the exact price of a Miracle for a little brother.

He took a money in one hand with the other hand he grasped her mitten and said. Take me to where you live. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Let see if I have a Miracle you need.

That well dressed man was a Dr.Carlton Amstrong a surgeon specializing in Neuro-Surgery The operation was completely free of charge and it was not long until Andrew was home again and doing well.

Mom and Dad were happily talking about the chain of events that had led them to this place..

That surgery " Her mom whispered. Was a real Miracle. I wonder how much it would have cost.

Tess smiled; She knew exactly how much a miracle cost..One Dollar and Eleven cent Plus the faith of a little child.

In our lives we never know how many Miracle will need' But remember Just keep in faith to God like a little child. If you believe you will recieve....A MIRACLE..

A lesson in Life...Dont give up......!!!

....... A Lesson in Life..Dont give up......

One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do.

Finally, he decided the animal was old, and the well needed to be covered up anyway; it just wasn't worth it to retrieve the donkey.

He invited all his neighbors to come over and help him. They all grabbed a shovel and began to shovel dirt into the well. At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly. Then, to everyone's amazement he quieted down.

A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally looked down the well. He was astonished at what he saw. With each shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey was doing something amazing. He would shake it off and take a step up.

As the farmer's neighbors continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it off and take a step up.

Pretty soon, everyone was amazed as the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well and happily trotted off!

Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt.

The trick to getting out of the well is to shake it off and take a step up.

Each of our troubles is a steppingstone.

We can get out of the deepest wells just by not stopping, never giving up!

Shake it off and take a step up..

King and the Four Wife

King and The Four Wives.......Sad Story

Once upon a time there was a rich King who had four wives.He loved the 4th wife the most and adorned her with rich robes and treated her to the finest of delicacies. He gave her nothing but the best.

He also loved the 3rd wife very much and was always showing her off to the neighboring kingdom.However his feared that one day she would leave him for another.

He also love the 2nd wife. She was his confidant and was always kind, considerate and patient with him. Whenever the King faced the problem he could confide in her.and she wouldhelp him get through the difficult times.

The King's 1st wife was a very loyal partner and had made great contributions in maintaining his wealth and kingdom. However, he didnot love the first wife. Although she loved him deeply,he hardly took notice of her.

One day the King fell ill and he knew he time was short. He thought of his luxurious life and wondered," I now have four wives with me, but when I die.I will be all alone."

Thus, he asked the 4th wife," I have loved you the most endowed you with the finest clothing and showered great care over you," Now that I'm dying will you follow me and keep me company?" No way! Replied the 4th wife and she walked away without another word. Her answer cut like a sharp knife right into his heart.

The sad King then asked to the 3rd wife, " I have loved you all my life. Now that I'm dying will you follow me and keep me company," "No! Replied the 3rd wife." Life is too good! When you die, I'm going to remarry!" His heart sank and turnedcold.

He then asked the 2nd wife." I have always turned to you for help and you've always been there for me. When i die, will you follow me and keep me company?" I'm sorry, I can't help you out this time." Replied the 2nd wife." At the very moment. I can only walk with you to your grave." Her answer struck him like a bolt of lightning and the King was devastated.

Then the voice called out." I'll go with you. I'll follow you no matter where you go. The King looked up, and there was his first wife. She was very skinny as she suffered from malnutrition and neglect. Greatly grieved, the king said." I should have taken much better care of you when i had the chance!"

In truth ,we all have the four wives in our life. This is a wonderful reminder!!!

Our 4th wife is our body. No matter how much time and effort we lavish and making it look good,It will leave us when we die.

Our 3rd wife is our possessions, status and wealth. When we die, it will all go to others.

Our 2nd wife is our family and friends, No matter how much they have been there for us,the furthest they can stay by us is up to the grave.

And our 1st wife is our Soul. Often neglected inpursuit of wealth, power and pleasures of the world. However, our soul is only thing that will follow us whenever we go. Cultivate, strenghten and cherish it now, for it is the only part of us will follow us to the throne of God and continue with us throughout Eternity.

Thought for the day:

Remember, when the world pushes you to your knees, you're in the perfect position to pray.

As my friend was passing the elepants,he suddenly stopped,confused by the fact that this huge creatures were being held by only a small rope tied to they front leg.No chain, no cages. It's was obvious that elephant could, at anytime, breaks away from the ropes they were tied to but for some reason, they did not.My friend saw a trainer nearby and ask why these beautiful magnificent animals just stood there and made no attempt to get away.

Well," he said," When they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and, at the age, it's enough to hold them, As they grow up, they are conditioned to believed that they cannot break away.They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free. " My friend was amazed . These animals could at anytime break free from their bonds but because they believed they couldn't they were stuck right where they were.

Like elephants, how many of us go through life hanging onto a belief that we can't do something,simply because we failed at it once before ? So make an attempt to grow further.....Why shouldn't we try it again ?

d Your attempt may fail, but never fail to make an attempt d

HOW RICH ARE YOU ?

One day a father and his rich family took his young son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose to show him how poor people can be. They spent a day and a night in the farm of very poor family,When they got back from they trip the father asked to his son ," How was the trip ?"

" Very good dad !"

" Did you see how poor people can be ?" The father asked

" Yeah !"

" And what did you learn ?"

The son answered ," I saw that we have a dog at home ,and they have four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of the garden , they have a creek that has no end. We have imported lamps in the garden , they have a stars. Our patio reaches to the front yard , they have the whole horizon."

When the little boy was finishing, his father was speechless, His son added," Thanks Dad for showing me how poor we are !''

Isn't it true that it all depends on the way you look at things " If you have love , friends , family , health . good humor , and a positive attitude towards life - you've got everything ! You can't buy any of this things. You can have all the materials possessions you can imagine, provision for the future, etc. But if you poor in spirit you have nothing!!!

Be Happy !!!!!

Will I Pray ?

Fri, 27 Jun 2008 13:30 EST

Will I Pray ?

Sometimes i have so much to do

I think it must be done.

I'll work so very,very hard

From morning till set of sun

But here is something I have found :

This really doesn't pay.

I've always found I've weaker grown

If I have failed to pray

Sometimes 'twas something for myself

Sometimes it was for God

Sometimes it was for other folks

That many steps I trod

But 'tis no matter who 'twas for

I truthfully must say

My faith and trust had smaller grown

Because I failed to pray

So I am trying hard to learn

That nothing's really great

If it must take my praying time,

So praying has to wait

It's praying ,make me fit for work ;

It is my staff and my stay,

And work will never be the best,

If I have failed to pray........

A diamond in the rough,is a diamond sure enough ,

For before it ever sparkless ,it is made of diamond stuff !

Of course , someone must find it,or it never will be found,

And then, someone must grind it or it never will be gound !

And when it's found and when it's ground

And when it's burnished bright

That diamond's everlastingly just flashings out its light !

Oh,teacher in the elememtary school,

Dont say," I have done enough ! "

That worst boy in your class maybe

A diamond in the rough
