ANECTODE
Got
this interesting anectode forwarded by a friend. Sharing this with you hoping
you will find it interesting.
Jenny
was a bright-eyed, pretty five-year-old girl. One day when she and her mother
were checking out at the grocery store, Jenny saw an elastic pearl necklace
priced at $2.50. How she wanted that necklace and when she asked her mother if
she would buy it for her, her mother said, "Well, it is a pretty
necklace, but it costs an awful lot of money. I'll tell you what. I'll buy you
the necklace, and when we get home we can make up a list of chores that you
can do to pay for the necklace. And don't forget that for your birthday
Grandma just might give you a whole dollar bill, too. Okay?"
Jenny
agreed, and her mother bought the pearl necklace for her. Jenny worked on her
chores very hard every day, and sure enough, her Grandma gave her a brand new
dollar bill for her birthday. Soon Jenny had paid off the pearls. How Jenny
loved those pearls! She wore them everywhere to kindergarten, bed and when she
went out with her mother to run errands. The only time she didn't wear them
was in the shower - her mother had told her that they would turn her neck
green?
Jenny
had a very loving daddy. When Jenny went to bed, he would read Jenny her
favorite story. One night when he finished the story, he said, "Jenny, do
you love me?" "Oh yes, Daddy, you know I love you," the little
girl said! "Well, then, give me your pearls." "Oh! Daddy,
not my pearls!" Jenny said. "But you can have Rosie, my
favorite doll. Remember her? You gave her to me last year for my birthday. And
you can have her tea party outfit, too. Okay?" "Oh no, darling,
that's okay." Her father brushed her cheek with a kiss. "Good night,
little one."
A
week later, her father once again asked Jenny after her story, "Do you
love me?" "Oh yes, Daddy, you know I love you." "Well,
then, give me your pearls." "Oh, Daddy, not my
pearls! But you can have Ribbons, my toy horse. Do you remember her?
She's my favorite. Her hair is so soft, and you can play with it and braid it
and everything. You can have Ribbons if you want her, Daddy," the little
girl said to her father. "No, that's okay," her father said and
brushed her cheek again with a kiss. "God bless you, little one. Sweet
dreams."
Several
days later, when Jenny's father came in to read her a story, Jenny was sitting
on her bed and her lip was trembling. Here, Daddy," she said, and held
out her hand. She opened it and her beloved pearl necklace was inside. She let
it slip into her father's hand. With one hand her father held the plastic
pearls and with the other he pulled out of his pocket a blue velvet box.
Inside of the box were real, genuine, beautiful pearls.
He
had them all along. He was waiting for Jenny to give up the cheap stuff so he
could give her the real thing. So it is with our Heavenly Father. He is
waiting for us to give up the cheap things in our lives so that he can give us
beautiful treasure.
Isn't
God good?
Are
you holding onto things which God wants you to let go of? Are you holding onto
harmful or unnecessary partners, bad relationships, habits and activities
which you have become so attached to that it seems impossible to let go?
Sometimes
it is so hard to see what is in the other hand but do believe in one thing
.......... God will never take away something without giving you
something better in its place.
