God and His/Her Plans

Well this is one of the most beautiful message i have received from one of my friend. Go though it and try to submerge urself in beauty of the words... God's Plan..

PLANNING AHEAD The best gift anyone can give me is a planner. I like planners because I am a planner. I like thinking ahead. I like being prepared. I get a high from being on top of things.
But some things are beyond planning. And life doesn't always turn out as planned. You don't plan for a broken heart. You don't plan for a failed business venture. You don't plan for an adulterous husband. Or a wife who wants you out of her life. You don't plan for an autistic child. You don't plan for spinsterhood. You don't plan for a lump in your breast.

You plan to be young forever. You plan to climb the corporate ladder. You plan to be rich and powerful. You plan to be acclaimed and successful. You plan to conquer the univerYou plan to conquer the universe. You plan to fall in love - and be loved forever.

You don't plan to be sad. You don't plan to be hurt. You don't plan to be broke. You don't plan to be betrayed. You don't plan to be alone in this world You plan to be happy. You don't plan to be shattered. Sometimes if you work hard enough, you can get what you want. But most times, what you want and what you get are two different things. We, mortals, plan.

But so does God in the heavens. Sometimes, it is difficult to understand God's plans especially when His plans are not in consonance with ours. Often, when God sends us crisis, we turn to Him in anger. True, we cannot choose the cross that God wishes us to carry, but we can carry that cross with courage knowing that God will never abandon us nor send something we cannot cope with.

Sometimes, God breaks our spirit to save our soul. Sometimes, He breaks our heart to make us whole. Sometimes, God sends us pain so we can be stronger. Sometimes, God sends us failure so we can be humble. Sometimes God sends us illness so we can take better care of ourselves. Sometimes, God takes everything away from us so we can learn the value of everything He gave us. Make plans but understand that we live by God's grace .

Wowwwwwww!!!!!!! Wonderful words... Just remember them..and feel someone somewhere is watching you for your wellbeing.. Its all his work at play.. may he direct ur intellect in right direction.

An Old Hindu Legend..

According to an old Hindu legend.. There was once a time when all human beings were god like, but they so abused their divinity so much that Brahma, the supreme, decided to take it away from them and hide it where it could never be found, without hard soul searching work, so they deserve what they have.
Where to hide their divinity was the question. So Brahma called a council of the angels to help him decide. "Let's bury it deep in the earth," said the angels. But Brahma answered, "No, that will not do because humans will dig into the earth and find it." Then the angels said, "Let's sink it in the deepest ocean." But Brahma said, "No, not there, for they will learn to dive into the ocean and will find it." Then the angels said,
"Let's take it to the top of the highest mountain and hide it there." But once again Brahma replied, "No, that will not do either, because they will eventually climb every mountain and once again take up their divinity." Then the angels gave up and said, "We do not know where to hide it, because it seems that there is no place on earth or in the sea that human beings will not eventually reach."Brahma thought for a long time and then said, "Here is what we will do. We will hide their divinity deep in the center of their own being, for humans will never think to look for it there."All the angelss agreed that this was the perfect hiding place, and the deed was done. And since that time humans have been going up and down the earth, digging, diving, climbing, and exploring--searching for something already within themselves.
Interesting isnt it.. even though it seems like a story but it tells you all what you need.
