A king called
all of his wise men and counselors together for a meeting.
He addressed them and said, "I want you to go and think, read, and research. Consult the wisest and
most learned men in the land. Spare no
expense."
"I want
you to find the ONE statement that will get me through all
situations in life. Whether I am on top of the world or in the pits, find that
statement."
"I don't
want to learn long and complicated philosophies. I want one
simple statement. Find it or write it; I don't care, just bring me the
statement."
The men left
and consulted for months. They finally returned and handed the King a scroll. The King unrolled the scroll. On it was written four
words.
"THIS
TOO SHALL PASS"
Is That all?
Asked they King. Then the wise men began to explain.
When you are
on top of the world, that is but a fleeting moment, things change,
always remember, this too shall pass. When you
are in the pits, all nights are followed by day, at your lowest moments remember also, this too shall pass.
All external
circumstances and material things change. No matter what
your circumstances, remember, THIS TOO
SHALL PASS!
The wise men
reminded the great King that this would get him through his
earthly things but the truly wise knew there were things beyond this earth and life. . . Things that were eternal.
They reminded
the King that true wisdom was in the ability to recognize the fleeting temporal
things of this material world from the truly eternal things.
O Great King
they said, "Most of the things that you worry or gloat
about are temporary and our four words apply." For most of your situations.
So my dear Friends whatever you are going through, from have a change of mentality by RESPONDING TO LIFE in a positively, why? Because whatever it is..... THIS TOO
SHALL PASS!
Go out there and be the Winner And Champion that you are!!!!
Have a Blessed Day.
