NAILS IN THE FENCE
There once was a little boy who had a bad
temper.
His Father gave him a bag of nails and told him that every
time he lost his temper,
he must hammer a nail into the back of the
fence.
The first day the boy had driven 37 nails
into the fence.
Over the next few weeks, as he learned to
control his anger, the number of nails hammered daily gradually dwindled
down.
He discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive
those nails into the fence.
Finally the day came when the boy didn't
lose his temper at all.
He told his father about it and the
father suggested that the boy now
pull out one nail for each day that he
was able to hold his temper.
The days passed and the young boy was
finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone.
The father took his son by the hand and
led him to the fence.
He said, 'You have done well, my son, but look at the
holes in the fence.
The fence will never be the same.
When you say
things in anger, they leave a scar just like this one.
You can put a
knife in a man and draw it out.
But It won't matter how many times you
say I'm sorry, the wound will still be there.
A verbal wound is as bad
as a physical one.
Remember that friends are very rare jewels, indeed.
They make you smile and encourage you to succeed.
They lend an ear,
they share words of praise and they always want to open their hearts to
us.
Show your
friends how much you care.
Its the same way how JESUS THE LORD AND SAVIOR DID.
He love us, care for us even how many times we rejected him.
its time to turn around and say
I LOVE YOU TOO LORD
this sentences changes everything.
