GOD has its own plan...


When Mr. Clark a Scottish farmer heard that the luxury cruise liner Titanic was to make its very first voyage. Its maiden voyage from the United Kingdom to United States of America.

He had a dream to be on the ship with his wife and his five children’s.

He practically spent most of his life’s savings to buy tickets for his entire family; non – refundable tickets guess what?

Just a week before the Titanic made its way to America, one of Mr. Clark’s son was bitten by a dog.

The doctor recommended that the boy be quarantined for his own safety and for the others around him.

Mrs Clark suggested that he and the other children actually make their way on the trip.

But Mr. Clark’s conscience didn’t allow him to leave his fife and his ill son behind.

Wednesday 10th April 1912, as the Titanic sailed forth from the Southampton port in Hampshire, England, Mr. Clark stood there crying tears of disappointment and frustration.

All his money was gone and none of them could make their way on the trip.

Just 5 days later on Monday the 15th of April 1912, when Mr. Clark heard news that Titanic had sunk having collided with an iceberg, he started looking for the dog.

Where is the dog? I should garland the dog, I should worship the dog.

If the dog hadn’t bitten my son, all of us in the family would be dead.

Friends, isn’t it amazing how many plans we make and isn’t it a reality, not everything goes according to our plans.

Once a sage was passing through the capital city of the famous king. While he was walking, he noticed a single currency coin on the road. He picked it up. He was satisfied with his simple living and he had no use of that coin. So, he planned to donate it to the one who is in need of it. He strolled around the streets throughout the day but didn’t find anyone such. Finally, he reached the rest area and spent a night there. Next morning, he wakes up for his daily activities and sees that the king is going for his invasion of another state with his war ready army.

Learn from every Lesson...

Once a man was walking in a forest and he happened to see an exotic bird, being very charmed by it and wanting to have it as a pet, he tip toed towards it from behind and caught it. To his utter surprise, the bird started talking and it said to him, “Please release me, in return I shall give you three gems – three valuable pieces of advice that can transform your life.” I will give you first one only when you let me go. The second one when I fly up to that branch and the third one when I fly up high to the very top of the tree. The man instantly agreed and released the bird. As soon as it was free the bird started flying up as it said. “Here is the first gem, my first piece of advice - Do not torture, torment and burden yourself with excessive regret for your past mistakes.” As the man pondered over what he was just heard, the bird flew up and sat on a branch and spoke back. “And the second one is – Do not believe on anything that goes against commo...
