Subject: {dbilg} 3 Bullets
Three Bullets
There once was a man who had nothing for his family to eat. He had an old
rifle and three bullets. So, he decided that he would go out hunting and kill
some wild game for dinner. As he went down the road, he saw a rabbit. He shot
at the rabbit and missed it. The rabbit ran away. Then he saw a squirrel
and fired a shot at the squirrel and missed it. The squirrel disappeared into
a hole in a cottonwood tree. As he went further, he saw a large wild 'Tom'
turkey in the tree, but he had only one bullet remaining. A voice spoke to
him and said, 'Pray first, aim high and stay focused.
However, at the same time, he saw a deer which was a better kill. He brought
the gun down and aimed at the deer. But, then he saw a rattlesnake between
his legs about to bite him, so he naturally brought the gun down further to
shoot the rattlesnake. Still, the voice said again to him, 'I said 'Pray, Aim
high and Stay focused.' So, the man decided to listen to God's voice. He
prayed,
then aimed the gun high up in the tree and shot the wild turkey. The bullet
bounced off the turkey and killed the deer. The handle fell off the gun and
hit the snake in the head and killed it. And, when the gun had gone off, it
knocked him into a pond. When he stood up to look around, he had fish in all
his pockets, a dead deer and a turkey for his family to eat. The snake
(Satan) was dead simply because the man listened to God.
Moral of the story:
Pray first before you do anything, aim and shoot high in your goals, and stay
focused on God. Never let others discourage you concerning your past. The
past is exactly that, 'the past.' Live every day one day at a time and
remember that only God knows our future and that he will not put you through any
more than you can bear with His help. Do not look to people for your
blessings, but look to the doors that only He has prepared in advance for you in
your favor. Wait, be still and patient; keep God first and everything else
will follow.
Are you praying, aiming high, and staying focused on God?
Blessings for the day and God Bless America!
I am not as good as I should be, I am not as good as I could be, but THANK
GOD I am better than I used to be !
