I'll be happy when

Fellow readers, hope you will enjoy the article below and enjoy your life after u read it =).



            I'll be happy when...

 

We convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married, have a baby, then another. Then we are frustrated that the kids aren't old enough and we'll be more content when they are. After that, we're frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with. We will certainly be happy when they are out of that stage. We tell ourselves that our life will be complete when our spouse gets his or her act together, when we get a nicer car, when we are able to go on a nice vacation or when we retire.

The truth is there's no better time to be happy than right now. If not now, when? Your life will always be filled with challenges.

It's best to admit this to yourself and decide to be happy anyway. Happiness is the way.

So, treasure every moment that you have and treasure it more because you shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your time with..... and remember that time waits for no one.

So, stop waiting
Until your car or home is paid off.
Until you get a new car or home.
Until your kids leave the house.
Until you go back to school.
Until you finish school.
Until you lose 10 lbs.
Until you gain 10 lbs.
Until you get married.
Until you get a divorce.
Until you have kids.
Until you retire.
Until summer..
Until spring.
Until winter.
Until fall.
Until you die.

There is no better time than right now to be happy.  Happiness is a journey, not a destination. So work like you don't need money, love like you've never been hurt, and dance like no one's watching,

God And The Geese

 This is yet another good story to share with everyone, hope everyone will enjoy the following story. This story is shared through an email by my prayer buddy; Elden =).

GOD AND THE GEESE


There was once a man who didn't believe in God, and he didn't hesitate to let others know how he felt about religion and religious holidays.

His wife, however, did believe, and she raised their children to also have faith in God and Jesus, despite his disparaging comments.

One snowy Eve, his wife was taking their children to service in the farm community in which they lived.

They were to talk about Jesus' birth. She asked him to come, but he refused

"That story is nonsense!" he said. "Why would God lower Himself to come to Earth as a man?

That's ridiculous!"

So she and the children left, and he stayed home.

A while later, the winds grew stronger and the snow turned into a blizzard. As the man looked out the window, all he saw was a blinding snowstorm. He sat down to relax before the fire for the evening. Then he heard a loud thump.

Something had hit the window.
He looked out, but couldn't see more than a few feet.

When the snow let up a little, he ventured outside to see what could have been beating on his window.

In the field near his house he saw a flock of wild geese. Apparently they had been flying south for the winter when they got caught in the snowstorm and couldn't go on. They were lost and stranded on his farm, with no food or shelter. They just flapped their wings and flew around the field in low circles, blindly and aimlessly. A couple of them had flown into his window, it seemed.

The man felt sorry for the geese and wanted to help them. The barn would be a great place for them to stay, he thought. It's warm and safe; surely they could spend the night and wait out the storm.
So he walked over to the barn and opened the doors wide, then watched and waited, hoping they would notice the open barn and go inside.
But the geese just fluttered around aimlessly and didn't seem to notice the barn or realize what it could mean for them.

The man tried to get their attention, but that just seemed to scare them, and they moved further away..
He went into the house and came with some bread, broke it up, and made a bread crumb trail leading to the barn. They still didn't catch on.

Now he was getting frustrated. He got behind them and tried to shoo them toward the barn, but they only got more scared and scattered in every direction except toward the barn.
Nothing he did could get them to go into the barn where they would be warm and safe.

"Why don't they follow me?!" he exclaimed.

"Can't they see this is the only place where they can survive the storm?"

He thought for a moment and realized that they just wouldn't follow a human "If only I were a goose, then I could save them," he said out loud.

Then he had an idea. He went into barn, got one of his own geese, and carried it in his arms as he circled around behind the flock of wild geese.

He then released it... His goose flew through the flock and straight into the barn -- and one-by-one, the other geese followed it to safety.

He stood silently for a moment as the words he had spoken a few minutes earlier replayed in his mind: "If only I were a goose, then I could save them!" Then he thought about what he had said to his wife earlier. "Why would God want to be like us? That's ridiculous!"

Suddenly it all made sense. That is what God had done. We were like the geese--blind, lost, perishing.
God had His Son become like us so He could show us the way and save us.

As the winds and blinding snow died down, his soul became quiet and pondered this wonderful thought.
Suddenly he understood why Christ had come.

Years of doubt and disbelief vanished with the passing storm. He fell to his knees in the snow, and prayed his first prayer:
"Thank You, God, for coming in human form to get me out of the storm!"

Fw: The Brick--

Im passing this on, not because I was told to, but because it has such a beautiful message.  Have a wonderful day.....and be sure to take time to look around at the beauty of God's kingdom. 

 

I know, I know, but just read it anyway. It will only take a minute and It might just make you think. The Brick!!! PLEASE  Read It.     Read this today and Don't delete it  even     if You are too busy!! You'll See..   THE BRICK   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 the 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.   Thought for the Day:   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!   Tell this story to every 'beautiful person' you wish to Bless.   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. ~Hope the readers enjoy the story =)~
