Search For The Silence

Seasons Changing


My Dear Friends
Here Is a short story.i found this in a book written by famous greek writer Vagueres.
i hope you can get the extract of it.

A farmer was working in his barn and amidst the hay, dropped his watch. He stomped all over the floor, and raked the hay, and poked into the dark corners with a flashlight to find the lost time-piece, but to no avail. Finally, he gave up his fruit-less search and went in for lunch. His small boy ran out to the barn, and a few minutes later came in with the watch. “How did you find it” his father asked? “I just lay down on the floor and kept very still, and soon I heard the watch ticking.”

There is a lesson to be learned from this simple story. Far too many of us waste our energies with a great deal of stewing and fretting and stomping through life. As we do so, we lose one of our most valuable possessions, namely fellowship and contact with our Creator.

Truly
