Guest guest Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 IT IS MY PROMISE “It is my promise to redeem the one who, with faith sings my praises, totally surrenders to me, remembers me constantly and meditates on me.” – Shri Sai Samartha Satcharita, Ch. 3, Ovi 15. A poor woman was abandoned by her husband and left with no visible means of support. When the case came up in court, the judge asked the wife: “Madam, have you any means of support whatever?” “Well, your honour,” she answered, “I have three, to tell the truth.” “Three!” “Yes, Sir.” “What are they?” asked the astonished judge. “My hands, my good health and my God, your honour,” came back the reply. The resourcefulness of this woman, her self-reliance, and her dependence upon God, can be a lesson to all of us. The old saying, “God helps those who help themselves,” is still valid. The strength we derive from our faith in God gives us the courage to have confidence in ourselves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
