A professor began a class by holding a glass of water in it.
He held it up for all to see
and asked the students, "How much do you think this glass
weighs?"
'50gms!'...'100gms!'...'125!'.
"I really don't know unless I weigh it," said the professor,
"but, my question is: What
would happen if I held it up like this for a few minutes?'
Nothing" the students said.
"Ok! What would happen if I held it up like this for an hour?"
the Professor asked.
"Your arm would begin to ache," said one of the students.
"You're right, now what would happen if I held it for a day?"
"Your arm could go frozen, you might have sever muscle
stress and paralysis and have to go to
Hospital for sure" ventured another student; and all the
students laughed.
"Very good but during all this, did the weight of the glass
change?" asked the professor.
"No" the student said.
"Then what caused the arm ache and the muscle stress?"
The student was puzzled.
"Put the Glass down!" said one of the students.
"Exactly said the professor “Life’s problems are something
like this Hold it for a few
minutes in your head and they seem okay. Think of them for
a long time and they begin to ache.
Hold it even longer and they begin to paralyze you. You will
not be able to do anything."
"It's important to think of the challenges (problems) in your
life, but EVEN MORE IMPORTANT is
To have trust in God and to 'put them down' at the end of
every day before you go to sleep. That
way, you are not stressed, you wake up every day fresh and
strong and can handle any issue,
any challenges that comes your way!
Remember Friend to "PUT THE GLASS DOWN TODAY!" and
have tranquillity by putting trust in Almighty God!!
LESSON: By worrying so much, do not turn your life to hell.
