Stones in Our Life

Sam was a civil engineer in a well reputed construction company. He lives with his parents in a well furnished home. But Sam was totally vexed over the things happening around him for past two months. Almost all the days he was cornered by his situations and all of them were critical. His family needs more money, his office needs more productivity, and his friends’ need more time. He was wondering what God was doing over there, letting him suffer like this. He simply not able to bear the pain he was going on. One day he was totally out of control with all the things happening around. He was not even interested in going back to home, so he went to the roof of an unfinished building and started murmuring against God for He has forsaken him. Doing this continuously Sam forgot the time; it was almost 10 pm. Sam started running down stairs and shocked on finding the doors to the ground floor were locked. He realized that security had locked the doors and gone down. He started shouting in full throat and found no response. Suddenly Sam got an idea and ran to the roof top and tried to call the people moving on the road to help him. He also tried some sign languages which he known to communicate. This attempt also failed. After a brief thinking a spark glowed in the mind of Sam. He took a 5 rupee coin threw down to the road so that people walking may turn their attention toward him. Now, a young man down the road find a 5 rupee coin falling before him, immediately he ran towards it and turn around and find no one, so walked happily. Then an old woman, an old man, and a kid did the same thing but no one looked above. Sam was astonished and ridiculed the ignorance of the people. With uncontrollable anger he threw a large brick down the road, now all of them walking in the road immediately looked above and started to shouting against him. Some said he was a mad, some said he was going to die, finally one came and asked what do you want from us? Sam now got his temper back and said he was locked in the upstairs. Then they helped him to get away from there. On the way to home Sam realized one truth, that God allows such stones in our life to remember Him. We often receive blessings from God and forget Him, so we receive very few stones to remember Him.

So let us praise and thank God for all the happenings of our life, it may be joyful or sorrowful never mind, because our God watches over us.

Cheers!!!
