Help Yourself

A traveling preacher finds himself in a tremendous rainstorm.

Within a few hours the hotel he is staying in becomes flooded. As the water rises, the preacher climbs to the roof and starts praying.

"Lord, save me so I can continue on my mission of preaching your gospel."

Just then, a coast guard rescue party floats by in a rowboat. "Let's go mister. Into the boat."

"I'll stay here," says the preacher, "The Lord will save me."

An hour later a second boat reaches the scene and the water is close to the roof of the hotel. "Sir, you better get in. the water is still rising."

"No thanks. The Lord will be my salvation."

Toward evening, the hotel is almost completely under water and the preacher is clinging to the satellite dish on the roof. A helicopter is spotted and on a loudspeaker is heard "HSir, grab on to the line and we will pull you up. This is your last chance.

"I'm all right," says the preacher, as he looks heavenward. "I know the Lord will provide sanctuary."

As the chopper departs, the satellite dish is hit by lightning and the preacher is killed.

When he arrived at the Pearly Gates he was furious.

"What happened, " he shouts. "I thought the Lord would provide!"

Moments later a thunderous voice is heard. "Gimmie a break pal. I sent you 2 boats and a chopper!"

...Tan-awa ra jud ning preacherra! Gipadad-an na jud na siya'g mutabang niya, gibalibaran pa jud!

...Remember, God's help maybe in any other form to ease us from our problems. Its up to us as to how we look at it and accept it.

Make a Difference

Once upon a time there was a wise man who used to go to the ocean to do his writing. He had a habit of walking on the beach before he began his work.

One day he was walking along the shore. As he looked down the beach, he saw a human figure moving like a dancer. He smiled to himself to think of someone who would dance to the day. So he began to walk faster to catch up.

As he got closer, he saw that it was a young man and the young man wasn't dancing, but instead he was reaching down to the shore, picking up something and very gently throwing it into the ocean.

As he got closer he called out,"Good morning! What are you doing?" The young man paused, looked up and replied,

"Throwing starfish in the ocean."

"I guess I should have asked, why are you throwing starfish in the ocean?"

"The sun is up and the tide is going out. And if I don't throw them in they'll die."

"But, young man, don't you realize that there are miles and miles of beach and starfish all along it. You can't possibly make a difference!"

The young man listed politely. Then bent down, picked another starfish and threw it into the sea, past the breaking waves and said,

"It made a difference for that one."
-------------------
...How many times have we been like that wise man who failed to realize that making a difference to single person is great enough...

Maybe if each of us thought the way the young man did, maybe this world would be a better place to live in.

Here is another article about LOVE and LIKE. The difference between these two are enumerated.

Difference between "somebody you Love" and "somebody you Like"


1 - In front of the person you love, your heart beats faster, But in front of the person you like, you get happy.

2 - in front of the person you love, winter seems like spring. But in front of the person you like, winter is just beautiful winter.

3 - If you look into the eyes of the one you love, you blush. But if you look into the eyes of the one you like, you smile.

4 - In front of the person you love, you can't say everything on your mind. But in front of the person you like, you can.

5 - In front of the person you love, you tend to get shy. But in front of the person you like, you can show your own self.

6 - You can't look straight into the eyes of the one you love. But you can always smile into the eyes of the one you like.

7 - When the one you love is crying, you cry with them. But when the one you like is crying, you end up comforting.

8 - The feeling of love starts from the eye But the feeling of like starts from the ear. So if you stop liking a person you used to like, all you need
to do is cover your ears. But if you try to close your eyes, love turns into a drop of tear and remains in your heart forever...

Check yourselves out. See the difference. You might only be having this "like" feeling to the one you tought you are loving right now.
