God’s Work



Rohit was traveling from one city to another but he missed his morning train. So while waiting he thought of having breakfast.


He went out of the station and started walking toward a nearby hotel to eat. On his way he saw two kids sitting on the sidewalk. There condition was not looking good and by looking at their face he could guess that they were very hungry.


He felt bad for them and gave them 10r and left. After this, as he was walking toward hotel he thought to himself, “How stupid of me..!! I gave them just 10rs.. What can they buy to eat with it, When i can’t even get a cup of tea with 10 rs.”


He felt ashamed of himself and went back to those kids. He asked them if they would like to eat at the hotel with him.


Kids were confused and looked at each other. As they were very hungry, they accepted his offer. When kids were at the hotel, the Hotelier stopped them from entering as their clothes were too dirty and torn.


Seeing this Rohit went to him and asked him to allow those kids to enter as they were with him and he is going to pay for their food. Seeing this Hotelier understood the whole situation and felt ashamed at his act of stopping those kids from entering.


They got inside and got seated comfortably. After this, Rohit asked the kids, “What do you want to eat?” Kids kept silent. Rohit ordered food.


As soon as food came, he saw a smile on the face of boys and felt happy. When the children started eating, the happiness on their face was somewhat different.


After having food. They returned back. Before leaving Rohit handed them some more money and asked them to buy some clothes.


Whole incident was over. Rohit was back to his normal routine but even after many days he couldn’t stop thinking about those boys and felt bad for them. One day while visiting a temple he said, “God, Where are you?? How can you sit quietly when there are children like them who are suffering from hunger..”


Just in the next moment a thought struck his mind, “Who had been providing food for them until now?? What I did for those boys, could I have done that with my own thinking??”


At that moment he realized and understood that everything we do is just a part of God’s Plan. Whenever we Help someone it’s because God finds us worthy to help someone, he sends us to help that person.


Moral: Refusing to Help Someone is like Refusing Work of God. If you see Someone in Need of help and You can Help that Person According to Your Capability as No Help is Small for Person who Needs it.

Mud: Tennessee Ghost Story

  Tennessee ghost story of a killer who encounters a strange old man along a dark road after burying his victim. What does this old man know about his crime? Find out in this short story by Andy Hinton. Although the walk should have been easier without the load, the adrenaline and whisky that had fuelled Jason earlier in the night is exhausted, and what energy remains is being used to shiver himself warm. As a result, it takes him half an hour to get back to the car. But time is relative, for what is half an hour in a night that never ends. Jason leans the shovel against the trunk and reaches into his right pocket for the keys; finding none, he goes to his left pocket and digs deeper. Then he runs both hands through all his pockets and rechecks them again. “Damn it.” Jason kicks the car, but the sound is muffled by the storm. He is angry enough, cold and worn out enough, to break a window, but he knows he needs the keys to drive home if he is ever to be done with this dreadful...

Mama Coon Coon: A Louisiana Swamp Folktale

  Now I’ll just bet that none of you have ever heard the story of Mama Coon Coon and the blue waters of the bayou, have you? Well, we know the story, and I think we need to tell it to you right now. Once upon a time, the waters of the bayou were black – as black as ink. Now, even though these waters were black, they were still filled with lots and lots of fishes, shrimp and crab. And all of the fishermen would wake up early in the morning, long before the sun had even come above the horizon, and they would cast their nets down into the deep, black water. And what a wonderful sight it was at the end of the day to watch those fishermen pulling in their nets overflowing with all kinds of fishes, shrimp and crab. Dulac Louisiana Bayou by  Clem .

You see, that is the name the local village children gav...

Ibo Landing

  Near the mouth of Dunbar Creek on Georgia’s St Simons Island, there’s a section of swampy marshland known as “Ibo Landing” where some fishermen refuse to cast their lines. In the daytime, it doesn’t look any different from the other vast marshes stretching across Georgia’s coastal islands. Elongated white herons call to one another over the endless plain of reeds and mosquito infested marsh grasses. Fiddler crabs scurry across the sands. Unseen creatures plop into the black waters. St Simons Island, Georgia near Ibo Landing But when night falls, it is said that one can hear a different sound entirely. Swamps are known to make strange sounds at night. But if you listen closely, you may hear what sounds like the faint rattling of chains drifting across the marsh, followed by an eerie chant: “The water brought us the water will take us away.” If you think your ears are deceiving you, think again. For the old timers in the area will tell you what you’re hearing is the brave warrior O...
