Daniel Fri., Sept. 3rd – Margaret Smith WHAT WAS THAT
ALL ABOUT? A
man walked home from work one day when he saw a snail on his porch and said,
"Oooh, a snail." So he kicked it as hard as he could, sending
the snail to his neighbor's yard. Two
years later, the man was sitting in his front room watching television, when he
heard a knock at the door. He answered the door finding no one there. As he was
about to close the door, he looked down and saw a snail. The snail looked up
and said, "So…what was that all about???" My first reaction to this story was to think,
"Two years is a mighty long time to hold a grudge (well, maybe not
long for a snail!)." But, wait a minute! The snail doesn't hold a
grudge. There's no anger, no resentment in his voice. It merely
takes him two years to be able to say what most of us have the opportunity to
say within hours, if we choose: "You hurt me. Maybe it was
unintentional, but you hurt me." That's tough to do. A lot tougher than the
option we often choose -- telling everyone else we know about what that
"terrible person" did to us. Yes, it's tougher, but it's crucial if
we want to preserve a good relationship. Jesus said, "Moreover if your brother sins
against you, go and tell him his fault between you and him alone...."
(Matthew 18:15) Has someone done something to hurt you lately?
Why not summon up the courage to say (without anger or resentment), "You
hurt me. What was that all about?" Oh yes, and be prepared to forgive! Have a great day! Alan Smith White House Church of Christ White House, Tennessee THOUGHT FOR THE DAY (July 2, 2004)
No Time I knelt to pray but not for long, I
had too much to do. For
bills would soon be due. So I
knelt and said a hurried prayer, And
jumped up off my knees. My
Christian duty was now done My soul
could rest at ease. All day
long I had no time To
spread a word of cheer. No time
to speak of Christ to friends, They'd
laugh at me I'd fear. No
time, no time, too much to do, That
was my constant cry, No time
to give to souls in need But at
last the time, the time to die. I went
before the Lord, I came, I stood
with downcast eyes. For in
his hands God held a book; It was
the book of life. God
looked into his book and said "Your
name I cannot find. I once
was going to write it down... But
never found the time."
