Jesus Was Thinking Of You…

Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?" "Yes, Lord," he said, "you know that I love you." Jesus said, "Feed my lambs." – John 21:15.

A holy man was having a conversation with the Lord one day and said, "Lord, I would like to know what Heaven and Hell are like."

The Lord led the holy man to two doors. He opened one of the doors and the Holy man looked in. In the middle of the room was a large round table. In the middle of the table was a large pot of stew, which smelled delicious and made the holy man's mouth water.

The people sitting around the table were thin and sickly. They appeared to be famished. They were holding spoons with very long handles that were strapped to their arms and each found it possible to reach into the pot of stew and take a spoonful. But because the handle was longer than their arms, they could not get the spoons back into their mouths.

The holy man shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering.

The Lord said, "You have seen Hell."

They went to the next room and opened the door. It was exactly the same as the first one. There was the large round table with the large pot of stew which made the holy man's mouth water. The people were equipped with the same long-handled spoons, but here the people were well nourished and plump, laughing and talking.

The holy Man said, "I don't understand."

"It is simple," said the Lord. "It requires but one skill. You see, they have learned to feed each other by sharing their spoons, while the greedy think only of themselves."

Remember:

"When Jesus died on the cross, He was thinking of you and me."

It’s estimated 93% won't forward this, 7% will.

I'm in the 7%, hence I am sharing my spoon with you.

Someone wisely said, “When the world decides to stop being greedy... there will be a harvest for the world! Amen.’

Be among the 7% who will share their spoon – God bless you and… 

Stay Blessed!
