IMPULSIVENESS CAUSES REGRETS
A young man was getting ready to graduate college. For
so many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer's
showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told
him that was all he wants..
As graduation DAy approached, the young man awaited
signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on
the morning of his graduation his Father called him into
his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have
such a fine son, and told him how much he loves him. He
handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box.
Curious, but somewhat dissapointed the young man
opened the box and found a lovely, leathered bound BIBLE,
Angrily, he raised his voice at his FAther and said, "with
all your money you give me a BIBLE?" and stoned out of the
house, leaving the Holy Book.
MAny years passed by and the young man was very successful
in business.
He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family, but realized
his Father was very old and thought perhaps he should go
to him. He had not seen him since that graduation day.
Before he could make arrangements, he received a telegram
telling him his Father had passed away, and willed all
of his possessions to his son. He needed to come
home immediately and take care things...
When he arrives at his Father's house, sudden sadness and
regrets filled his heart,
He began to search his Father's most important papers
and saw the still new BIBLE, just as he had left it years ago,
With tears,he opened the BIBLE and began to turn the page.
As he read those words, a car key dropped from an
envelope taped behind the BIBLE.
It had a tag with the dealer's name, the same dealer
who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag
was the date of his GRADUATION.
and the word...., PAID IN FULL..
HOW many times do we missed GOD's Blessings because
they are not packaged as we expected?
