When we look at our little blessings--they add up to more than we realize. A man was heavy-burdened, his cross he could not bear. And so he went to see the Lord, knowing He was fair. and he was taken to a room, with many crosses there. And God told him to simply choose a different one to bear. So carefully he looked at them, inspecting every one. And though it was quite difficult, at last his job was done. With heavy crosses everywhere, he saw against the wall a cross that seemed perfect, because it was so small. He thought this cross was suitable, quite certain it would be a cross that he could bear each day, and do so willingly. But God was quietly amused; the man had searched for naught. For he saw the cross the man had picked was the very one he brought. by Anne Peterson--I always like this story.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07336135024504983268noreply@blogger.com
