Be content with what we have

 

A man named Bill Driver saw a strange ball floating in sandalwood lake in Kansas.  He observed the ball carefully to know about it.  It was a children’s basketball which was half inside the mouth of a cat fish. The fish could not swallow the ball and so it was struggling with that ball.  The fish mistook the ball for its feed.  The fish tried to pull the ball inside the water but could not succeed because of the air inside the ball.

Bill went and caught the fish, cut the ball with his knife release the air and removed the ball from the mouth of the fish.  When we are greedy for money these kind of things will happen in our life also.  God who knows our needs give us our daily bread.  Not satisfied with what we have, we humans want more and more.  Love of money is the root cause of all evil.  When we go through the path of God there is no danger.  So let us all have a thankful heart towards God and be content with what we have.

Worry Box

  Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and He shall sustain thee. A manager of a company often come across big problems.   This gave him lot of worry.   To stop worrying about his problem, he did something.   He made a worry box.   He used to write down his problem that gave him worry and put it inside the worry box.   After putting inside the worry box he will force himself to stop worry about that problem.   After a week when he opened the worry box most of his problems were already solved.   Dear children of God we do have a worry box.   Put everything inside that worry box and you can stay calm and cool to watch those problems getting solved.   Yes dears, Jesus is our Worry Box.

Life changing power

Image
  A group of well-educated social service activist went to a tribal village. They have to walk through forests for a long distance to arrive at the village. To their surprise they saw a small boy reading a book. They went near him and asked what he was reading. Again to their surprise the boy replied that he was reading the Bible. One among them replied to the boy that reading the Bible personally is not relevant to their lives today because it was written two thousand years ago and today's life has changed so much. The boy replied to them, true sir the world has changed so much but if my villagers were not taught to read by few people who came here years ago and if our people had not read the Bible, by now they would have surrounded you and killed all of you and preparing to cook and eat you all. This book I am reading today saved your lives and changed our lives too.  The power of Jesus' love and the power of the Word of God are so GREAT.
