A friend forwarded this story to me several years ago. It has such a great impact on me, till date.
Here's the story about Faith.
There was this small village suffering from a severe drought. The crops were dying, and the villagers and their animals had very little water to drink.
One day, to try to find a solution to the drought, the village priest called the villagers to gather at the village square to pray together for rain. He told them to bring along a token of their faith, so the prayer could be done in sincere faith.
And so the villagers gathered at the square bringing with them tokens of their faith. Some brought the Bible while others carried small crosses as tokens of faith. They all prayed aloud with great faith and hope.
Within a few moments it began to rain. The whole crowd was overjoyed and danced happily in the rain. The priest noticed that among the joyous crowd was a small girl, opening her umbrella. The girl had brought her umbrella as a token of faith. The priest admired this child who had brought an umbrella in total faith that the Lord would surely hear their prayers and send rain.
All came to pray for rain, but the little girl had come believing God will answer her prayers.
Cheers!

ReplyDeleteNice story which you have shared here. I would like to share one as same that of this little girl.
A Sailor was stuck in an island where he was the only survivor. He made a hut for his shelter. He was waiting for someone to help, but no one came. He stored food in the hut for his survival, but one day the hut burned to ashes and nothings was left out. He was so angry, he said God, Why you have done this to m3? The next morning a rescuer came. Sailor asked, How did you know that I am here? They replied "We saw a Smoke Signal"
Trust GOD! His plans are alway greater than ours!
Cheers!
