Monday Motivation….. March 04, 2024 (684)
Once upon a time, it was observed that a beggar would quietly come, enjoy a meal from the crowd’s generosity, and leave without paying in a busy restaurant. One day, as he was eating, a man quietly informed the restaurant owner that this beggar would benefit from the crowd and leave without settling the bill.
Hearing this, the restaurant owner smiled and said, “Let him go without saying anything; we’ll talk about it later.” Just as always, the beggar finished his meal, discreetly took advantage of the crowd, and silently departed. After he left, the owner was asked why he allowed this.
The restaurant owner explained, “You see, you are not alone. Many of my customers have noticed him, and they have told me about him. He sits in front of my restaurant and, when he sees a crowd, he eats quietly. I have always ignored it, never stopped him, never caught him, and never attempted to disgrace him… because I believe that the crowd in my restaurant may also be due to his ‘prayers.’”
He added, “Perhaps that’s why they say, ‘Don’t be so proud that I am feeding someone… who knows, maybe we are eating from someone else’s fate!”
Moral:
Faith and prayer are the vitamins of the soul; man cannot live in health without them. Never forget the three powerful resources you always have available to you: love, prayer, and forgiveness!
Have a great week ahead..!
