Don’t underestimate anything……., however funny it might be...

This is a real story that happened between the customer of General Motors 
and its Customer-Care Executive. A complaint was received by the Pontiac 
Division of General Motors:

"This is the second time I have written to you, and I don’t blame you for 
not answering me, because I sounded crazy, but it is a fact that we have a 
tradition in our family of Ice-Cream for dessert after dinner each night. 
But the kind of ice cream varies so, every night, after we've eaten, the 
whole family votes on which kind of ice cream we should have and I drive 
down to the store to get it. It's also a fact that I recently purchased a 
new Pontiac and since then my trips to the store have created a problem. You 
see, every time I buy a vanilla ice cream, when I start back from the store 
my car won't start. If I get any other kind of ice cream, the car starts 
just fine. I want you to know I'm serious about this question, no matter how 
silly it sounds"

"What is there about a Pontiac that makes it not start when I get vanilla 
ice cream, and easy to start whenever I get any other kind?" The Pontiac 
President was understandably skeptical about the letter, but sent an 
Engineer to check it out anyway. The latter was surprised to be greeted by a 
successful, obviously well educated man in a fine neighborhood. He had 
arranged to meet the man just after dinnertime, so the two hopped into the 
car and drove to the ice cream store. It was
Vanilla ice cream that night and, sure enough, after they came back to the 
car, it wouldn't start. The Engineer returned for three more nights. The 
first night, they got chocolate. The car started. The second night, he got 
strawberry. The car started. The third night he ordered vanilla. The car 
failed to start.

Now the Engineer, being a logical man, refused to believe that this man's 
car was allergic to vanilla ice cream. He arranged, therefore, to continue 
his visits for as long as it took to solve the problem. And toward this end 
he began to take notes: he jotted down all sorts of data: time of day, type 
of gas uses, time to drive back and forth etc. In a short time, he had a 
clue: the man took less time to buy vanilla than any other flavor.

Why? The answer was in the layout of the store. Vanilla, being the most 
popular flavor, was in a separate case at the front of the store for quick 
pickup. All the other flavors were kept in the back of the store at a 
different counter where it took considerably longer to check out the flavor. 
Now, the question for the Engineer was why the car wouldn't start when it 
took less time. Eureka - Time was now the problem - not he vanilla ice 
cream!!!!

The engineer quickly came up with the answer: "vapour lock". It was 
happening every night; but the extra time taken to get the other flavors 
allowed the engine to cool down sufficiently to start. When the man got 
vanilla, the engine was still too hot for the vapour lock to dissipate.

Remember:

God has created every thing for good. Even crazy looking problems are 
sometimes real and all problems seem to be simple only when we find the 
solution with cool thinking along with Jesus. We should intimate him for 
all-even silly things and shall wait for his expert answer and shall not 
proceed with our own conclusions.

Don't just say its "IMPOSSIBLE" without putting a sincere effort...
Observe the word "IMPOSSIBLE" carefully... Looking closer you will see, "I'M 
POSSIBLE".…… with Jesus, My Savior, Lord & Messiah

What really matters is your attitude and your perception.
