God’s Plan



Once in the village lived a man who was very lazy and didn’t like to work. So he would always look for the easiest way to feed himself.


One day he found a fruit farm and looked around. Not seeing anyone guarding the farm, he decided to steal some fruits but as soon as he climbed a tree, the farm owner saw him.


Owner ran toward him to catch him. Seeing him, that man got afraid and ran towards the forest and went inside the forest to hide.


After some time passed, he started to walk toward the village. While passing by he saw that there was a fox who had only two legs and was crawling on those two legs.


Man thought to himself, “How can this fox still be alive in such a condition? This fox can’t run, so how is it able to feed itself as well as save itself from other animals?”


Just then a man saw a lion coming in his direction, He ran and climbed up a tree. From there he saw that the lion was holding a piece of meat in his mouth and seeing the lion all other animals ran away except for that fox as it wasn’t able to run.


Man was surprised to see that instead of attacking that fox, the lion left a piece of meat there and left.


Seeing this, the man realized God’s plan to feed that fox and thought to himself, “God is creator of all and he always has a plan to take care of beings he created. This means God must have something planned for him too.”


He left from there and then just outside the village sat under a tree, waiting for someone to come and feed him too. He kept looking at the road waiting for someone to come and feed him but two days passed and he was still without food.


Finally he couldn’t bear hunger and got up from that place and started to walk back to the village. While walking back to the village he met an old Sage.


He told him everything he had on his mind. He questioned, “Why is that God has shown it’s mercy on that fox and was so cruel to me?”


Sage gave him some food and water. Then smiled and said, “It’s true that the creator has a plan for everyone. You are obviously a part of God's plan. But Son, You took his sign in the wrong way. He didn’t want you to be like the fox. He wanted you to be like the Lion”


Moral: God has given us Strength and Capability to do our part. We should always Learn to see things in a Positive way and see yourself in Position to Help others who Need.

McDow Hole – Anatomy Of A Texas Ghost Story

  Spooky Texas legend of the McDow Hole, where ghost sightings of pioneer woman Jenny Papworth and her baby have long been reported.  Written by Bob Hopkins . I first heard the legendary tale of the Ghost of the McDow Hole in the fifteenth year of my youth. It was near Halloween in October 1975 when a friend related the tale of the ghost that haunts a creek bed in rural Erath County and naturally I believed every word of it in the twilight of an evening spent with friends telling ghost stories. I would again hear the tale over the years while living in North Central Texas. It wasn’t until my chance encounter of meeting an author of the legend in 2002 that my curiosity began to peak and like any good investigator I felt it my duty to dig deeper into the hundred year old tale of pioneer folklore to see how much of the story was true and how much was fabricated. I would discover many similarities in fact and fiction that I believed would leave any reader with the same curiosity t...

Tsali: North Carolina Cherokee Ghost Story

  The year was 1838. As the first rays of early morning light crept through the dark and misty mountain valley, Tsali gazed out of his tiny cave with a heavy heart. As a young boy, he spent days running though the thick woods and scampering up the steep, rocky hillsides that surrounded his Cherokee village in western North Carolina. The mountains were his place of escape — a place where he could dream, and be alone with his thoughts. But now, as an ailing, 60-year-old man, Tsali was hiding in these hills for a very different reason. The white man had taken away the land that his ancestors had lived on for centuries. And they would not stop until even these majestic, sacred hills were theirs. Tsali looked out and saw his fellow villagers, who were also hiding in the tiny crevices that dotted the wooded hillside. Many were shivering in the early morning chill. In their haste to leave, they had had no time to pack their belongings. Some managed to smile back at Tsali, their teeth chat...

Lorenzo Dow’s Georgia Curse

  There comes a time in life when we all need a little guidance – a little helpful push to remind us what’s right and wrong. And for some folks, that guidance comes from some good old fashioned, fire and brimstone preaching. Now these days, you can’t turn on the TV without seeing one religious channel after another. But back in the old days when there wasn’t any TV – or cars for that matter – the traveling preacher was the only man of God some country folk got to see. Lorenzo Dow was one of the best-known traveling preachers back in the 1800s. He was a funny looking man from Connecticut – tall and skinny with wild eyes, long stringy hair, a thick beard, and a slight hunchback. But he also had a booming voice that made sinners across the country shake in their boots. “Repent now, my brothers and sisters! Repent!” he would scream in every town he visited, and many people did just that. Lorenzo loved the outdoors, and would rather sleep on cold, hard ground in the woods than the most ...
