Take Time To Read. It's Worth Reading It. Trust Me by odeexpress(m): 12:12pm On Jun 26, 2012
[b]TAKE TIME TO READ. It's worth reading it. Trust me smiley

A married lady was expecting a birthday gift from her husband.
For many months she had admired a beautiful diamond ring in a showroom,
And knowing her husband could afford it,
...
She told him that was all she wanted.
As her birthday approached,

This lady awaited signs that her husband had purchased the diamond ring.

Finally, on the morning of her birthday, her husband called her into his study.
Her husband told her how proud he was to have such a good wife, and told her how much he loved her.
He handed her a beautiful wrapped gift box.
Curious!
the wife opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the wife's name embossed in gold.
Angrily, she raised her voice to her husband and said, 'With all your money you give me a Bible?' And stormed out of the house,
leaving her husband

Many years passed and the lady was very successful in business.
She managed to settle for a more beautiful house and a wonderful family,
but realized her ex-husband was very old,
and thought perhaps she should go to visit him.
She had not seen him for many years.
But before she could make arrangements, she received a telegram telling her that her ex-husband had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to her. She needed to come back immediately and take care of things…

When she arrived at her ex-husband's house, sudden sadness and regret filled her heart. She began to search through her ex-husband’s important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as she had left it years before.
With tears, she opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. Her
ex-husband had carefully underlined a verse, Matt 7:11,
'And if you, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children,
how much more shall your Heavenly Father, who is in heaven,
give what is good to those who ask Him?

As she read those words, a tiny package dropped from the back of the Bible. It had a diamond ring, with her name engraved on it -- the same diamond ring which she saw at the showroom.
On the tag was the date of her birth, and the words. 'LUV... U ALWAYS'.

QUESTION:
How many times do we miss God's blessings, because they are not packaged as we expected?

MORAL LESSON:
Do not spoil what you have, by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.

IF YOUR GIFT IS NOT PACKAGED THE WAY YOU WANT IT, IT’S BECAUSE IT IS BETTER PACKAGED THE WAY IT IS.
ALWAYS APPRECIATE LITTLE THINGS; THEY USUALLY LEAD YOU TO BIGGER & BETTER THINGS

'The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched.
They must be felt with the heart!

All a man need is a patient woman to stick by and watch his dreams fall into place and to quit nagging.
Do you think she knew he would become the US president at this time? I don't think so; but she stuck with him and his VW beetle anyway!

I trust you enjoyed this “STORY”. Pass it on to others, It will go a long way to help!
Have a splendid and a wonderful day today and always!!!

One thing I guarantee u is that ur Mynd[i][/i] is filled with mediocrity. Must u tribalize every word? The fact that 'Ode' in yoruba means something doesn't automatically give it a single meaning. Check very well, people from other states in Nigeria bear 'Ode' and it means something else. Nonsense! Must u comment?

I did not tribalise. The Yoruba definition best describes you and so I used it. Understand? Now go play with the pigs in the gutter like you always do

I hail your sense of judgement and analysis. If you were twice as smart, you'd still be stupid.

And now you must be feeling good. You just dropped a punch which just show how incredibly silly you are.
