Just A Story

One day a man came to his senses and said to himself, "Boy, I have been depressed at myself for no reason." He eventually felt that life didn't matter with how his appearance was. His mom would tell him that she was continuously worried about him losing hair and getting bald. The man would be like, "Hey, I think I'm ugly naturally so why does it matter with being a dude?" The difficulty in life sometimes for this man is that he has problems settling on people's desires and wants people to change to suit his personal needs. It could in a way, mean that he wants to be served selfishly.

The man's friend just one day decided to tear his computer apart and started trash talking to the world. He was just in a fit of raging filth and had no idea why this woman in his life left him. He never really had a chance to bed her, while he was married to her. Even after exchanging their dues, the couple never interlocked lips. It was because he received a phone call that sent him to go desperately confirm that a lost cow was now in the stomach of a jailed thief.

And then the story goes that they decided to meet Jesus in their hearts. The best thing to have ever happened to them, despite all the miserable things that can occur. Life sometimes feel unfair, and it may be that a person's true desire may never be met in this world, out of having committed sins. It's a tough journey with the walk, and when our hearts are closed we just can't see anything. Some people are closer to the narrow path of happiness, and just happen to try to cope with the good things by trying to be positive. In a way, I think it gives a defensive mechanism. Complaining and whining to others is just a sign of weakness, especially if it's a little thing. It's my prayer that people would have a glad understanding of what Jesus has done. To be able to see how he works in the individual's life and to grow in faith. To become transformed and have a type of peace and moral prosperity that transcends human will and understanding.
