Learn to rise up!




 



One day a little boy went in the fair along with his father. He was very happy and enjoyed a lot in the fair. At the time of returning home he asked his father, “Father, please, buy me those colourful balloon.”

His father agreed, “Okay, son.”

Both father and son went to the balloon shop. There were many colourful balloons in the shop. The little boy was very confused.

When the father saw his confused son, he asked his son dearly, “What happened son? You looked lost?”

“Nothing father, I just am wondering while looking those flying colourful balloons in the sky? How are those balloons rising up so much height without wings?”

The father laughed.

At that time the shopkeeper said, “No little boy, those balloons are not rising by itself, they are rising up because of the hot air inside them.”

“Really!” the boy got excited while getting the answer.

“Uncle, can you put the hot air inside me so that I can rise up like those balloons.”

The father and the shopkeeper were bursting with laughter.

“No, beta, it is not possible,” the father replied.
“Why father?” the son asked, confused.

The father thought for a while and replied, “Son, the hot air inside the balloons are like the great energies and powers that helps them to rise up and if you want to rise up in your life then you too gain a lot of energies and powers within you.”

The boy smiled and nodded convincingly.



It is not the balloons that rise up; it is due to the hot air that helps to rise up!

Trust Almighty God!

  A businessman was returning home on horseback from the annual fair in a nearby city. He had quite a big sum of money with him. It was raining heavily and the poor man was wet to the skin. He was in a bad mood and grumbled that God had given him such terrible weather for his journey. He entered a thick forest. All of a sudden, to his horror, he found himself face to face with a bandit whose finger was already on the trigger of his gun. He would not have been saved from death, except for the fact that the rain had caused the powder to dampen and the gun was useless. The businessman spurred his horse and happily escaped the danger. When he was out of danger he said to himself: “How stupid I was to moan about the bad weather, instead of accepting it patiently as a gift of God. If there had been a clear sky and the air dry and limpid, I would now be lying in a ditch covered in blood and in vain would my children wait my arrival. The rain which I was ready ...
