*> NEVER STOP TRYING GOD IS WATCHING

> Six-year-old Brandon decided one Saturday morning to fix his parents
> pancakes. He found a big bowl and spoon, pulled a chair to the
> counter, opened the cupboard and pulled out the heavy flour canister,
> spilling it on the floor.
>
> He scooped some of the flour into the bowl with his hands, mixed in
> most of a cup of milk and added some sugar, leaving a floury trail on
> the floor which by now had a few tracks left by his kitten.
>
> Brandon was covered with flour and getting frustrated. He wanted this
> to be something very good for Mom and Dad, but it was getting very bad.
>
> He didn't know what to do next, whether to put it all into the oven or
> on the stove and he didn't know how the stove worked!.
>
> Suddenly he saw his kitten licking from the bowl of mix and reached to
> push her away knocking the egg carton to the floor. Frantically he
> tried to clean up this monumental mess but slipped on the eggs getting
> his pajamas white and sticky.
>
> And just then he saw Dad standing at the door. Big crocodile tears
> welled up in Brandon 's eyes. All he'd wanted to do was something
> good, but he'd made a terrible mess. He was sure a scolding was
> coming, maybe even a spanking, but his father just watched him.
>
> Then walking through the mess he picked up his crying son, hugged him
> and loved him, getting his own pajamas white and sticky in the process!
>
> That's how God deals with us. We try to do something good in life, but
> it turns into a mess. Our marriage gets all sticky, we insult a
> friend, we can't stand our job or our health goes sour.
>
> Sometimes we just stand there in tears because we can't think of
> anything else to do. That's when God picks us up and loves us and
> forgives us, even though some of our mess gets all over Him.
>
> But just because we might mess up, we can't stop trying to "make
> pancakes" for God or for others. Sooner or later we'll get it right
> and then they'll be glad we tried....
>
> Please pass some of this love on to others. Suppose one morning you
> were called to God. Do all your friends know you love them?
>
> I was thinking ... and I wondered if I had any wounds needing to be
> healed, friendships that need rekindling or three words needing to be
> said Sometimes, "I love you" can heal & bless! Remind every one of
> your friends that you love them. Even if you think they don't love you
back.
> You would be amazed at what those three little words, a smile and a
> reminder like this can do.
>
> Just in case I haven't told you lately... I LOVE YA!!!
>
> Send this to everyone you love and send it back to the person who sent
> it to you.... And never stop "making pancakes"!!!
