I once heard a story that I often share with people that are going through some difficult times, here it is…
There once was a couple who were invited to a company dinner at a very exclusive restaurant. After a wonderful evening of dinning and great conversation the group headed to the parking lot. As the couple continues their conversation with the husband’s boss, a very successful businessman and CEO of his own company, the man bent over to pick-up a penny from the ground and smiled as he put it in his pocket. The wife was puzzled by the sight of this distinguished, well-dressed man picking up a simple penny from the ground. After a short while, she gathered enough courage to ask if he was doing it for luck. The man answer with a smile “every time I see a penny I pick it up, it reminds me to put my trust in God”.
Most often when I worry about something, somehow I always find a shinny penny in the oddest of places. I too, am remained to put my trust in God.
NOTE: Yesterday when I was in the hospital getting ready for my CT scan… as I was changing into the hospital gown in the dressing room, someone had left a bunch of shinny, new pennies on a countertop. I took one with me…
