What did i do today? Friday, July 14, 2006
Came home just around 11.30pm when the day is about to end. Time passes rather fast i must say.Another 2 weeks plus will be FOC and 3 weeks plus, school will start. Feeling totally not prepared at all.Cant helped it, because i havent been using my brain for 3years.*LOL* Wont be saying much tonight because i am simply tired.
This evening was an enriching one, i was at a presentation and heard some interesting stories which i would like to share too.
There was once a man who fell down from the cliff in the night. He fumbled through the vegetation growing on the cliff and finally grabbed on to a branch. He desperately held onto the branch as he knew if he let go, he will fall deeper and may even die. He shouted many times for help,'Is there anyone up there?' Finally, a deep voice returned his call,' Yes, I am God, believe me and i will help you.' Under such circumstances, the man agreed immediately that he believes in him. So God said to him,'Let go of the branch and you will survive.'Guess what? He didnt let go of the branch but held onto it. The next morning, police found his body frozen stiff, clinging onto the branch. He was only a feet away from the ground.
Yup, the next one goes like that. In a poor province area of China, there was a village that suffered from drought for months. The villagers had almost finish their grains and needed to grow new crops as soon as possible. A little girl saw that her family was already starving and decided to ask the Chief to pray for rain. The Chief thought that it was a good idea and called for all the villagers to go up to the temple built high above the hill behind their village. The started to pray for hours and the first crack of thunder was heard after 5 hours. The rain began to fall heavily and the villages rejoyced for their prayer was heard. Soon after that, they wanted to make their way down back to the village but couldnt as it was raining heavily. It was only when the little girl took out an umbrella and walked back to the village to return home, the rest of the villagers felt so ashamed of themselves. Other than the little girl, none of the villagers actually believed that it will rain.
So whats the moral of the story? i will leave it to you to do your own thinking. Thats all for now, seems like this week has been rather wonderful.
