Scripture portion:
The scripture reading is taken from Romans chapter 5 Verses 3-5
Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.
The word of the Lord.
Story:
The Elephant Rope
A man who was walking near a group of elephants was halted by a small rope tied to their front legs. He was amazed by the fact that the huge elephants were not even making an attempt to break the rope and set themselves free.
He saw an elephant trainer standing beside them and he expressed his puzzled state of mind. The trainer said “When they are very young and much smaller, we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them.
As they grow up, they are conditioned to believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free.
Moral of the story: It is the false belief of the elephants that denied their freedom for a lifetime. Likewise, many people are not trying to work towards success in their life just because they failed once before. So, keep on trying and don’t get tied up with some false beliefs of failure.
Thought for the Day:
“Perseverance is the key to success. Never give up and keep making efforts. It’s often the last key in the bunch that opens the lock.”
Let us pray:
O Lord, hear our prayer for patience and perseverance in all situations. Purify our intentions and correct our thought patterns as we sincerely release our desire to pray for ourselves and our loved ones. Bless us with the light of understanding that we trust and rely upon daily as we mould our lives. Amen.
Let us continue with The Lord’s prayer….
