New Seasons

Once, a child went to a shop with his mother. The shop keeper looked at the small cute child and showed him a bottle with sweets and said ‘Dear Child…You can take the sweets…’ but the child didn’t take. The shop keeper was surprised..such a small child he is and why is he not taking the sweets from the bottle. Again he said ..’take the sweets..’ Now the child’s mother also heard that and said.., ‘take the sweets..’ yet he didn’t take…
The shopkeeper seeing the child not taking the sweets… he himself took the sweets and gave to the child…… the child was happy to get two hands full of sweets …
When they returned home Mother asked child…
‘Why didn’t you take the sweets when the shop keeper told you to take…?’

Can you guess the response?

Child replies… Mom! My hands are very small and if I take the sweets I can only take few..but now you see when uncle gave with his big hands….how many more sweets I got!

*** Moral of the Story ***

When we take we may get little but when God gives… HE gives us more beyond our expectations…. more than what we can hold.
