The Help from the God

A small village came into a very large storm, and floods began to submerge the whole village. A

priest prayed in the church when the flood submerged his knees

．

Lifeguard came to the church

driving a sampan

：

"Father, come here as soon as possible

！

Otherwise you will drown in the

flood

！

" The priest said

：

"No

！

I am confident that God will save me, please go to save others

．

"

But soon, the water rose to the priest

’

s chest, and the priest had to stand on the altar

．

At this time,

a police drove to the priest with a speedboat

：

"Father, hurry up, otherwise you will be drowned

！

"

The priest said

：

"No, I would like to keep my church. I believe that God will save me

．

You

’

d

better to save others." After a while, the floods have submerged the entire church. The priest had

no choice but to firmly grasp the top of the Cross Church

．

A helicopter flied over slowly, and the

pilot dropped a rope ladder

：

"Father, hurry up, this is the last chance! " But the priest said: "No, I

would like to keep my church

！

God will save me

．

”The

stubborn priest was finally drowned. In the

heaven, the priest asked the God angrily

：

"Lord, I devoted my whole life to serving you, why you

refuse to help me

！

" God said

：

" The first time, I sent a sampan to rescue you, but you didn

’

t get

on . I think you are not satisfied with the sampan

；

the second time, I sent a speedboat, you refuse it

again

；

the third time, I send a helicopter to rescue you, but also you are unwilling to accept it.

Therefore, I thought you wanted to come back to my side." In fact, there are many obstacles in life

chiefly coming from our stubbornness and ignorance

．

When others give us a hand, do not forget,

only we accept it, can they help us

God's Coffee

A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old professor.

Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life. The professor went to the

kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups - porcelain, plastic, glass,

crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, some exquisite - telling them to help themselves.

When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said: "If you noticed, all the nice

looking expensive cups were taken up, while the plain and cheap ones are left on the table. It is

normal for you to have only the best for yourselves, which is the source of your problems and

stress. Be assured that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. In most cases it is just more

expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you really wanted was coffee,

not the cup, but you consciously went for the best cups... And then you began eyeing each other's

cups. Now consider this: Life is the coffee; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups.

They are just tools to hold and contain Life, and the type of cup we have does not define, nor

change the quality of Life we live.

Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee God has provided us."

God brews the coffee, not the cups.......... Enjoy your coffee!

"The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything."

Live simply.

Love generously.

Pebbles and diamonds

"Why do we have to learn about these useless things?"

This is what teachers have heard students complain about most commonly. In such cases, we

may tell the students such a fable:

One night, a group of nomadic tribes of herdsmen was preparing to break camp, all of a

sudden, a bunch of bright light shrouded. They knew that God would be there, so that they looked

forward to getting wishes from God.

God began to speak: "You have to collect along the way a number of pebbles. Tomorrow night,

you will be very happy, but you can also be regretted."

Then God disappeared. Herdsmen were very disappointed, because they would look forward

to God to bring them untold wealth and health and longevity, but they did not expect that God had

told them to do all these meaningless things. However, in any case, after all, that was God's will,

although there were some dissatisfaction, they were still picking over some stones,

In this way, they took a day, when night fell, they camped. All of a sudden, they found that all

the pebbles they picked had turned into diamonds. They were delighted, at the same time, they felt

very sorry, and regretted that they did not collect more pebbles.

Now we feel that knowledge is useless, like pebbles, in the future, they may become endless

wealth.

Sand and Stone

The story goes that two friends were walking through the desert. During some point of the journey

they had an argument, and one friend slapped the other one in the face.

The one who got slapped was hurt, but without saying anything, wrote in the sand: "Today my

best friend slapped me in the face."

They kept on walking until they found an oasis, where they decided to take a bath. The one who

had been slapped got stuck in the mire and started drowning, but the friend saved him.

After he recovered from the near drowning, he wrote on a stone: "Today my best friend saved

my life."

The friend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him, "After I hurt you, you wrote in

the sand and now you write on a stone. Why?"

The other friend replied: "When someone hurts us we should write it down in sand where winds

of forgiveness can erase it away. But when someone does something good for us, we must engrave

it in stone where no wind can ever erase it."
