Sri Sai Ram

 

Pls. read the below story.

 

********************************************************************************

A young and successful executive was traveling

down a neighborhood

street, going a bit too fast in his new Jaguar.

He was watching for kids darting out from between parked cars and

slowed down when he thought he saw something.

As his car passed, no children appeared. Instead, a brick smashed

into

the Jag's side door!

He slammed on the brakes and backed the Jag back to the spot where

the brick had been thrown.

The angry driver then jumped out of the car,

grabbed the nearest kid and

pushed him up against a parked car shouting, "What was that all

about and who are you? Just what the heck are you doing? That's a new

car and that brick you threw is going to cost a lot of money. Why did you

do it?"

The young boy was apologetic. "Please, mister...please, I'm

sorry but I

didn't know what else to do," He pleaded. "I threw the

brick because no

one else would stop..." With tears dripping down his face and

off his

chin, the youth pointed to a spot just around a parked car.

"It's my brother," he said.

"He rolled off the curb and fell out of his wheelchair and I

can't lift

him up."

Now sobbing, the boy asked the stunned executive, "Would you

please help

me get him back into his wheelchair? He's hurt and he's too heavy for

me."

Moved beyond words, the driver tried to swallow the rapidly swelling

lump

in his throat.

He hurriedly lifted the handicapped boy back into the wheelchair,

then

took out a linen handkerchief and dabbed at the fresh scrapes and

cuts.

A quick look told him everything was going to be okay.

"Thank you and May God bless you," the grateful child told

the stranger.

Too shook up for words, the man simply watched the boy push his

wheelchair-bound brother down he sidewalk toward their home. It was a

long, slow walk back to the Jaguar. The damage was very noticeable,

but

the driver never bothered to repair the dented side door. He kept the

dent

there to remind him of this message "Don't go through life so

fast that

someone has to throw a brick at you to get your attention!"

God whispers in our souls and speaks to our hearts. Sometimes when we

don't have time to listen, He has to throw a brick at us. It's our

choice

to listen or not.

Moral :

If

God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on it.

If He had a wallet, your photo

would be in it.

He sends you flowers every

spring.

He sends you a sunrise every

morning.

Face it, friend - He is crazy

about you!

God didn't promise days without

pain, laughter without sorrow, sun

without

rain, but He did promise strength

for the day, comfort for the tears, and

light for the way.

Read this line very slowly and

let it sink in...

If God brings you to it, He will

bring you through it.

 

 

Jai Sai Ram
