THE REPENTANCE

Hello,I'm back



Hi everyone,
Thankyou for your prayers;I really appreciate them.
These couple of months I had a lot of changes in my life,first of them :I got 2 months older!
Well,here is an article that I found interesting ,so I decided to share it here. God bless you all.

A letter to
God
A man working in a post office,whose job was to process all mail that had illegible addresses,one day noticed a letter address,in shaky handwriting,to God.He thought,"I'd better open this one and see what it's all about."It read:

"Dear God,I am an 83 year old widow living on a very small pension.Yesterday someone stole my purse.It had a hundred dollars in it wich was all the money I had until my next pension check.Next Sunday is Easter,and I had invited two of my friends over for dinner.Without that money,I have nothing to buy food with.I have no family to turn to and you are my only hope .Can you please help me?"

The postal worker was touched,and went aroundshowing the letter to his fellow employees.Each of them dug into his wallet and came up with a few dollars.By the time he made the rounds,he had collected 96 dollars,wich they put into an envelope & sent to the 83 year old widow.The rest of the day,workers felt a warm glow thinking of the nice thing they had done.
Easter came and went,and a few days later came another letter from the old lady to God.All the workers gathered around while the letter was opened.It read:

"Dear God,How can I ever thank you enough for what you did for me?Because of your generosity,I was able to fix a lovely dinner for my friends.We had a very nice day,and I told my friends of your wonderful gift.By the way,there was 4 dollars missing.It was no doubt,those thieving bastards at the post office"!

"A Christian will find it cheaper to pardon than to to resent. Forgiveness saves the expense of anger, the cost of hatred, the waste of spirits." - Hanna More

  • Thank you both,
    In fact these 2 exams were connected to my M.S entrance and they meant a lot to me.The main one was really difficult & better to say TERRIBLE! so, I can't wait to get the results;but since I did all I could,I'm trying to trust God against any results.
