错过的祝福

Is packing important to you?

A young man was getting ready to graduate fromcollege. For many months he had admired a beautifulsports car in a dealer's showroom, and knowing hisfather could well afford it, he told him that was all hewanted.

As Graduation Day approached, the young manawaited signs that his father had purchased the car.Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his fathercalled 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 loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box. Curious,but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young man's name embossed in gold.

Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible?" Hethen stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible.

Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautifulhome and a wonderful family, but realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps heshould go to see him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make thearrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all ofhis possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care of things.

When he arrived at his father's house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began tosearch through his father's important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left ityears ago.

With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he was reading, a car keydropped from the back of the Bible. It had a tag with the dealer's name, the same dealer whohad the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words… "PAID IN FULL".

How many times do we miss blessings because they are not packaged as we expected? I trustyou enjoyed this. Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but rememberthat what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for. Sometimes we don'trealize the good fortune we have or we could have because we expect "the packaging" to bedifferent. What may appear as bad fortune may in fact be the door that is just waiting to beopened.
