Blind Girl Story
Someone sent me this email about a blind girl. Here it is .
There was a blind girl who hater herself because she was blind. She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend. He was always there for her. She told her boyfriend, "If I could only see the world, I would marry you." One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandages came off, she was able to see everything, including her boyfriend. He asked her, "Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?" The girl looked at her boyfriend and saw that he was blind. The sight of his closed eyelids shocked her. She hadn't expected that. The thought of looking at them the rest of her life led her to refuse to marry him. Her boyfriend left her in tears and days later wrote a note to her saying: "Take good care of your eyes, my dear, for before they were yours, they were mine."
I'm not sure if this is true or fake. The thing is it makes a person think. How often do we tell God how awful our life is. Then He gives us what we wanted. A day later we forget who gave it to us or we are just as unthankfull as the girl. Or how many times we've complained about something when a 100 or more people would just like to have what we have. The truth is. Nothing here on earth is ever going to make you happy. Getting married, money, expensive toys, or even the perfect job will never make you totally happy. The only person that can make you happy is God Himself. God is love, and God is happiness. Some people say if I had a million dollars I would be happy. Look at how many millionaires that are unhappy. Look how they try to find happiness. By going out a parting or doing whatever else there is. See the things on earth will never make you happy forever. Why you might ask? It's because the only things that are going to make you happy are the things that you can take with you when you die and go to heaven. that pretty much eliminates all worldly possessions. Whatever is inside your spirit will make you happy. Those things are the word of God and His promises to you. Don't look what you don't have. Look at what you do have. You have Jesus living inside of you. It just can't get any better than that.
