Keep Working Hard, It Will Pay Off

In a remote village, there lives a hardworking farmer who owns a farm. Over the years his grapery yields rich crops, and the farmer is very successful. He has three sons, who are young and energetic but never worry about working. 

As the farmer grows older, he begins to worry about his sons’ future.

Then he becomes very ill and feels that his death is coming soon. He calls his sons and says,

Dear sons, I see my death approaching, but I want to share a secret before you all leave. These areas have treasure hidden inside. Dig the whole area after my death, to find it. ”

The old farmer died. The sons start digging for money without leaving any part of the field but nothing is found. In any case, digging their fields leads to healthier crops and results in higher incomes. These earnings make the sons realize what their father means.

Moral

Hard work always pays off. The fruits of hard work are always sweet.

4/16–Start Your Day Off Right Series 

Quote:

4/16–Speak & Listen Correctly 

Story:

4/16–

During the gold rush, a man who had worked in the Colorado mine for several months quit his job, as he hadn’t hit the gold yet and the job was getting boring. He sold his equipment to another man who resumed mining where it left off. The new engineer was informed by his engineer that there was gold only three meters from where the first miner stopped digging.

The engineer was right, which means that the first miner was only a meter away from hitting the gold before he stopped.

Moral

When things start to get tough, try to persevere in adversity. Many people give up following their dreams because the job becomes too difficult, or boring, but you are often closer to the finish than you think, and if you push just a little harder, you will be successful.

Scripture:

Matthew 6:31-34

Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

Humor:

4/16–SPELLING ONE Board Chair:    Pastor, why did you fire your secretary?

Pastor:             She couldn’t spell. She kept asking me how to spell about every other word while she took dictation. Board Chair:    I suppose you couldn’t stand the interruptions. Pastor:             No, it wasn’t that. I just didn’t have time to look up all those words. Thank 

Can You Spare A Minute Or So 4/16?

If you can’t find five minutes, can you spare two or three?

4/16– Can You Spare A Minute?

Although you may have missed her, actress Kathy Bates played the vital roles of heiress Molly Brown in the recent movie TITANIC.

Bates, who is age 49, became known as the “mom” to the crew and became known as well as one who continually encouraged the crew and cast. Bates told a story in a recent interview to explain her perspective.

“There’s a great story I always remember when I think about crews and directors. There was a guest conductor who was rude to everyone in the symphony. Everyone hated him. Finally, at the packed dress rehearsal, he lifts his arms and nothing happens. Not a sound. He’s stunned. He draws himself up and gives the down beat again. No sound. 

Finally, the first-chair violinist stands up and says, ‘That’s just to show you that no sound comes out of that baton of yours.’ 

I always think about that when I am making a movie.” 

Everyone needs a bit of appreciation.

The Lesson Of The Crabs In A Barrel

Crabs In A Barrel

Crabs In A Barrel

“Crabs in a barrel is a story I’ve heard motivational speaker Craig Valentine tell! He said you could put crabs and a big barrel and leave the lid off and still none of them would get out. Just to soon as one crab started getting near the top of crab below would reach up and pull him back down. Craig compared it to us humans. If we are slightly below another and they begin to rise we have a tendency to try to pull them back now. If we say that we are going to write a book they say, “don’t you know that you probably won’t be successful?” They ask if we know how many people have written books that didn’t sell even one hundred copies? They seemingly want to dash some water on your fire. They ask the question “what do you want to do that for.””

Start Your Day Off Right Series 4/15

Start Your Day Off Right Series 

Quote:

4/15–Pick Your Battles

Story:

Scripture:

Hebrews 4:1-2

Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it. For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.

Humor:

4/15–A pastor was delivering a strong message on the evils of alcohol. Rather loudly he said, “If I had all the wine in the world, I’d dump it in the river.” Even louder he declared, “If I had all the beer in the world, I’d dump it in the river.” Finally he pounded the pulpit and ended his sermon by exclaiming, “If I had all the whiskey in the world, I’d dump it in the river.” The music director rose for the final hymn and said with a crooked grin, “Please turn to hymn 108, ‘Shall We Gather at the River?’”

If You Don’t Listen To Life, It Might Have To Throw A Brick

A brick slammed into a businessman’s car door. He slammed on the brakes to check what happened.

The angry man jumped out of his car and grabbed the closest boy and yelled, “What was that? What have you done to my car? Why did you do that?” 

The boy was very scared but extremely polite. and apologized. “Sorry, sir. I didn’t know what else to do,” he said. “I had to throw bricks because no one else would stop to ask for my help.” With tears rolling down his cheeks. He pointed to the parked cars and said “this is my brother, he rolled forward and fell from the wheelchair, and he is seriously injured. I cannot lift him.”

The crying boy asked the man, “Could you help me get him back in his wheelchair? He is injured and too heavy for me.” He quickly lifted the other boy from the place and put him back in the wheelchair. He also helped the boy with his bruises and cuts.

When he thought everything would be fine, he went back to his car. 

Thank you, sir, and God bless you,” said the grateful boy. The young man was too shocked for any word. When he got out of the car, he looked at the bulging door of his car. The damage was very noticeable, but he didn’t bother to repair it. 

He held the money to remind him of the message; “Don’t go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get your attention.”

Moral

Life whispers in our souls and talks to our hearts. Sometimes when we don’t listen to it, he throws a brick at us. It is our choice to hear the whisper or wait for the brick.
