Fresh Manna by Pastor Tim Burt I am reposting this inspiring story by request! I hope it will be a blessing to you and remind you of something critically important! ~ Pastor Tim The Spoon That Feeds (Author Unknown) A man was having a conversation with the Lord one day. He said, “Lord, I would like to know what Heaven and Hell are like.” The Lord led the man to two doors. He opened one of the doors and the man looked in. In the middle of the room was a large round table. In the middle of the table was a large pot of stew which smelled delicious and made the man’s mouth water. The people sitting around the table were thin and sickly. They appeared to be famished. They were holding spoons with very long handles and each found it possible to reach into the pot of stew and take a spoonful, but because the handle was longer than their arms, they could not get the spoons back into their mouths. The man shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering. The Lord said, “You have seen Hell.” They went to the next room and opened the door. It was exactly the same as the first one. There was the large round table with the large pot of stew which made the man’s mouth water. The people were equipped with the same long-handled spoons, but here the people were well nourished and plump, laughing and talking. The man said, “I don’t understand.” “It is simple” said the Lord, “it requires but one skill. You see, they have learned to feed each other. While the greedy think only of themselves.” Gal 5:13 “For you have been called to live in freedom–not freedom to satisfy your sinful nature, but freedom to serve one another in love.” In His love, Pastor Tim Burt If Fresh Manna is a blessing to you, I’d love to know.

Poučna priča – o sebičnosti Jednog je dana Svetac imao priliku popričati s Bogom te Ga upita: - Gospode, bilo bi mi zadovoljstvo znati kako izgleda Pakao i Raj. Bog odvede sveca do dvoja vrata. Otvori jedna od dvoja vrata i dozvoli mu da pogleda unutra. Na sredini sobe, stajao je veliki okrugli sto. Na sredini stola, nalazila se velika posuda, s jako finom i mirišljavom hranom. Svetac osjeti kako mu ide voda na usta. Osobe koje su sjedele za stolom bile su izrazito mršave, ljubičaste boje i bolesnog izgleda. Izgledali su svi izgladnelo. Imali su kašike sa veoma dugačkim drškama koje su bile pričvršćene na njihove ruke. Svi su mogli dohvatiti tanjir sa hranom i uzeti malo, no kako je drška kašike bila duža od njihove ruke, nisu mogli staviti hranu u usta. Sveti se čovjek stresao na sam pogled njihovog jada i njihovih patnji. Bog reče: Upravo si video pakao. Bog i čovek se uputiše prema drugim vratima. Zati dođoše do drugih vrata i Bog ih otvori. Scena koju je čovjek ugledao bila je identična prethodnoj. Bio je tu veliki okrugli sto, posuda prepuna fine hrane, koja mu je opet naterala vodu na usta. Osobe za stolom su isto imale kašike dugih drški. Ali, ovaj put su osobe bile dobro nahranjene i srećne, pa su međusobno razgovarale zadovoljno se smješkajući. Sveti čovek reče Bogu: - Ne razumijem! - Jednostavno je, odgovori Bog, sve zavisi od jedne veštine ... Ovi su naučili hraniti jedni druge, dok prvi misle samo na sebe.
