A nice story to be shared....

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 room. Her husband told her how proud he was to have
such a goodwife, 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 married 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 regretfilled 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 ago. 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 which is in heaven, give 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'... How many times do we miss God's blessings
because they are not packaged as we expected? I trust you enjoyed this.

P/S:
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 PACKED THE WAY YOU WANT IT, IT'S BECAUSE IT IS BETTER PACKED THAT WAY! ALWAYS APPRECIATE LITTLE THINGS; THEY USUALLY LEAD YOU TO ATTACHMENTS!
