Bearing Your Cross
The young man was at the end of his rope.
Seeing no way out, he dropped to his knees
in prayer. "Lord, I can't go on," he said.
"I have too heavy a cross to bear."The Lord replied, "My son, if you can't bear
its weight, just place your cross in side this
room. Then, open that other door and pick out
any cross you wish." The man was filled with
relief. "Thank you, Lord," he sighed, and he
did as he was told.Upon entering the other door, he say many crosses,
some so large the tops were not visible. The, he
spotted a tiny cross leaning against a far wall.
"I'd like that one, Lord", he whispered.
And the Lord replied, "My son, that is the cross
you just brought in."When life's problems seem overwhelming,
it helps to look around and see what other
people are coping with. You may consider yourself
far more fortunate than you imagined.
