hi all,
here's an inspirational story wich i would like to share wit u all lovelies. this story somehow opened up my mind and it gives a real deep meaning for me. i aint sure if u've ever heard of it b4. ok here it goes..
...SOMETIMES YOU DON'T KNOW THE REASONS WHY...
the only survivor of a shipwreck was washed up on a small, uninhabited island. he prayed feverishly for God to rescue him, and every day he scanned the horizon for help, but none seemed forthcoming. exhausted, he eventually managed to build a little hut out of driftwood to protect him from the elements and to store his few possessions.
but then one day, after scavenging for food, he arrived home to find his little hut in flames, the smoke rolling up to the sky. the worst had happened; everything was lost. he was stunned with grief and anger.
"God, how could u do this to me?" he cried.
early the next day, however, he was awakened by the sound of a ship approaching the island. it had come to rescue him.
"how did u noe i was here?" asked the weary man of his rescuers.
"we saw ur smoke signal," they replied.
...............................
well, as u can see from the story above, things that happened to us which we perceived as sumthing bad, somehow turns out to be a blessing for us. it is always easy to get discouraged when things are going bad. but we shouldn't lose heart, because God is at work in our lives, even in the midst of pain and suffering. so, we all have to always bear in mind that there's always a blessing in disguise in whatever that we are going through now. tho we cant seem to see the blessing nw, with a little bit of patience, sooner or later we'll discover and the blessing will be revealed.
oh well the story above has indeed touched me. it made me think something that i've never thought of before.
ok, hope the story touches u too.
