Two Boxes - God's Boxes

Two  Boxes - God's  Boxes    

I have in my hands two boxes,   

Which God gave me to hold.
He said, "Put  all your sorrows in the black box,   
And all  your joys in the gold."

I  heeded His words, and in the two boxes, 
Both  my joys and sorrows I stored,  
But though the  gold became heavier each day,
The black was as  light as before.
With curiosity, I opened  the black,
I wanted to find out why,
And  I saw, in the base of the box, a hole,
Which my  sorrows had fallen out by.

I showed the hole to  God, and mused,
"I wonder where my sorrows could  be!"
He smiled a gentle smile and said,
"My child, they're all here with me.."
I asked God, why He gave me the boxes,
Why the gold and the black with the  hole?
"My child, the gold is for you to count your  blessings,
The black is for you to let  go."

We should consider all of our friends a  blessing. Send this to a friend today just  to let them know you are thinking of them and that  they are a joy in your life. 

A ball is a  circle, no beginning, no end.
It keeps us together  like our Circle of Friends
But the treasure  inside for you to see,
Is the treasure of  friendship you've granted to me.
Today I  pass the friendship ball to you.
Pass it on to  someone who is a friend to you...

All the Best
Have a nice and happy day
