P. Edwin Tisdell - Simple Reminder

Lack of time management leads to poverty. Whatever you are doing that is taking your time wastefully, cut it off immediately. Biologically, your body transforms as you grow older. Everything should grow along.

Have you heard the story of Dr. Mark? If not, read this and thank me later.

Dr. Mark, a well-known cancer specialist, was once on his way to an important conference in another city where he was going to be granted an award in the field of medical research.
He had worked long and hard on his research and felt his efforts deserved the award.
However, two hours after the plane took off, the plane made an emergency landing due to some technical problem. Dr. Mark immediately went to the reception and found that the next flight was after 10 hours. The receptionist suggested him, to rent a car and drive himself down to the conference city which was only 4 hours away.
Dr. Mark rented a car and started his journey. However, the weather suddenly changed and a heavy storm began. The pouring rain made it very difficult for him to see and he missed the road and went the wrong direction.
After two hours of driving, he was convinced he was lost. Driving in the heavy rain on a muddy road, feeling hungry and tired, he frantically began to look for any sign of a fast food center or a place to rest. After some time, he finally came across a small tattered house. Desperate, he got out of the car and knocked on the door. A lady opened the door. He asked her if he could use her telephone.
However, the lady told him that she doesn’t have a phone but told the doctor to come inside and wait till the weather improved.
Hungry, wet and exhausted, the doctor accepted her kind offer and walked in. The lady gave him hot tea and something to eat. The lady told him that he can join her for prayer. But, Dr. Mark smiled and said that he believed in hard work only and told her to continue with her prayers.
Sitting on the table and sipping the tea, the doctor watched the woman in the dim light of candles as she prayed next to what appeared to be a small baby bed.
The doctor asked her what exactly she wanted from God and enquired if she thought God will ever listen to her prayers. He further asked about the small child in the bed for whom she was apparently praying for.
The lady gave a sad smile and said that the child in this bed is my son who is suffering from a rare type of cancer and there is only one doctor Mark who can cure him, but I don’t have money to afford his fee and moreover Dr Mark lives in another far off town. She said that God has not answered my prayer so far but God will create some way out one day and added, I will not allow my fears to overcome my faith.
Stunned and speechless Dr Mark was in tears which were rolling down his cheeks. He whispered, God is truly great and recollected the sequence of events. ….there was malfunction in the plane, a thunderstorm hit, and he lost his way; and all of this happened because God did not just answer her prayer but also gave him a chance to come out of materialistic world and give some time to the poor hapless people who have nothing but rich prayers. From there upwards, he believes there was a God.

“You belle trust God and stop making fun”
Wetting God can’t do? 😭
