A STORY FOR YOU

If an individual gives a story
There has to be a man of glory
Be it in honor and fame
Or the man hung in shame
A story for u my young ones
Is but a reflection of what was once
It is hard to come clean
Or depict what each story mean
Try and solve this riddle
Then perhaps maybe i could just play the fiddle

(RIDDLE)
A story that must be told,
To great and small alike.
A link through time and space,
A scar that can never be erased.

HOW DO OTHERS PERCEIVE ME?

"You sure like to give it all you have got." That's the comment I got when ii first cross the bothers of the States. Now no one wants to look at me in the eye. Every one seems to have forgotten who gave that power moving speech at convocation. Or who was the best candidate in the elections. Its hard to have fame and lose it i thought. But what did I really have? Was it a line up of people buffering my ego? I am now going through hardship and i fail at even one of the tests. The biggest question: How do others perceive me? There are so many uncertainties but this my greatest fear......

KNOWLEDGE IS THE KEY TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF FAITH

"Mum, how are we certain that the flood is not going to reach the house?" The little boy asked her young mother. The rains had come in full force this year. The six-year old had no clue about the warning system and the alerts that was announced on TV earlier that night. When his mother refused to reply the boy got himself busy. He went to the basement ans turned off all the water main pipes. His dad had thought him how in case of an emergency and this was one. He went to the room of old clothes and packed old towels. Carefully he lined up each window and door openings until he was satisfied. He rolled up the rug with all his strength and smiled when he was done. On his way up he took the first aid kid with the flash light and other supplies. The father came home soaked and called out to his son. "Welcome home dad," he said with a smile. "We are ready for the flood. We can go through anything now."

The little boy developed a strong faith because of the knowledge he had as well as what he accomplished.Do you have the faith that the flood of life will not take over? What knowledge do you have in place for this faith to be real?
