What happens in Heaven when we Pray.

*a friend of mine shared this story in FB and i want to share it here in my blog! so nice!!!!!


WHAT HAPPENS IN HEAVEN WHEN WE PRAY?


This is one of the nicest e-mails I have seen and is so true:

I dreamt that I went to Heaven and an angel was showing me around. We walked side-by-side inside a large workroom filled with angels. My angel guide stopped in front of the first section and said, 'This is the Receiving Section. Here, all petitions to God said in prayer are received.

I looked around in this area, and it was terribly busy with so many angels sorting out petitions written on voluminous paper sheets and scraps from people all over the world.

Then we moved on down a long corridor until we reached the second section.

The angel then said to me, "This is the Packaging and Delivery Section. Here, the graces and blessings the people asked for are processed and delivered to the living persons who asked for them." I noticed again how busy it was there. There were many angels working hard at that station, since so many blessings had been requested and were being packaged for delivery to Earth..

Finally at the farthest end of the long corridor we stopped at the door of a very small station. To my great surprise , only one angel was seated there, idly doing nothing. "This is the Acknowledgment Section, my angel friend quietly admitted to me. He seemed embarrassed.

"How is it that there is no work going on here? I asked."

"So sad," the angel sighed. "After people receive the blessings that they asked for, very few send back acknowledgments."

"How does one acknowledge God's blessings? "I asked.

"Simple," the angel answered. Just say, "Thank you, Lord."

"What blessings should they acknowledge?" I asked.

"If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof overhead and a place to sleep you are richer than 75% of this world. If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in a dish, you are among the top 8% of the world's wealthy, and if you get this on your own computer, you are part of the 1% in the world who has that opportunity."

"If you woke up this morning with more health than illness.. You are more blessed than the many who will not even survive this day."

"If you have never experienced the fear in battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture, or the pangs of starvation... You are ahead of 700 million people in the world."

"If you can attend a church without the fear of harassment, arrest, torture or death you are envied by, and more blessed than, three billion people in the world."

"If your parents are still alive and still married.. .. you are very rare."

"If you can hold your head up and smile, you are not the norm, you're unique to all those in doubt and despair......."

"Ok," I said. "What now? How can I start?"

The Angel said, "If you can read this message, you just received a double blessing in that someone was thinking of you as very special and you are more blessed than over two billion people in the world who cannot read at all."
________________________________

Have a good day, count your blessings, and if you care to, pass this along to remind everyone else how blessed we all are..........

ATTN: Acknowledge Dept.
"Thank you Lord, for giving me the ability to share this message and for giving me so many wonderful people with whom to share it."

If you have read this far, and are thankful for all that you have been bles sed with, how can you not send it on?

I thank God for everything, especially all my family and friends.

Just be yourself.
Everyone else is taken.

and i pray~

Time to blog again… I know Ive been blogging a lot lately…blogging a lot of myself like my favorite author, books, music but this time it will be different… Let’s just say, I’ll be blogging in general form maybe like about life and stuffs… J so Im warning you already  if u don’t want to read  this cheesy blog of mine, u better stop here, it’s fine.. hahaha~ ps. sorry for the late post!

Life as we know it is precious. We are the holder of our own action and doings and no one else, but what will you do when along the way your life will be taken away from u in just a snap? Are you prepared? Are you ready? These are the common question I always encountered. We all know our life here on earth is just borrowed from God. Sometimes we take life as for granted (maybe I can include myself to that situation). It’s sad but it’s true and it’s reality we are talking about here.*sigh

My point is we must start to appreciate the things that are happening into our life, even little things. We tend to forget it coz we are blinded with a lot of our vices and stuffs, for one I would admit it again. So it all depends on us, to control and balance it.  We also tend to remember  the mistakes and negative stuffs we had committed before which is good if when we use it as a guide for our better tomorrow, but if we get stuck to that simple mistake and just take it for granted we will never succeed. 

Ok, as u can see maybe ur wondering why im writing this kinda stuffs, it is because I feel bad about what I am hearing and watching in the television, internet and in radios, not to mention the crimes and crisis we are suffering right now. But earlier I was been informed by a friend of mine that one of her friend died ,actually I didn’t know what the cause of it at first not after I saw it in the news that it was a car accident. Whoah, I was reading the article and I got teary eyes knowing that they are still studying and younger than me. They still have their dreams waiting. It’s sad that in just a blink of it, it was all taken away from them. And that’s the time I opened my eyes to reality and life. I took my life for granted somehow. So that’s why I feel a bit guilty. Sometimes, I feel bad when something is wrong, and suddenly conclude I hate my life and sometimes wish to die because of it. But I am not aware that there are people in this world who have problems worst than me. I never ever think about that not until now. So somehow this incident is somewhat a mind opener to me, that we should appreciate life whatever it is planned and make the most out of it.

After an hour or two, I saw in Twitter the news about Japan being hit by an earthquake and tsunami.  It got me worried, but I still continue surfing and lurking in the net. Suddenly a news flash appeared on the tv, a footage of the earthquake which ranges 8.9 magnitude and live video of the tsunami happening right now to them. Watching the video it gives me goose bumps, and I can’t believe that it is happening to the world right now. I mean it seems that im watching a movie of a new 2012 ver. or something worst, I can still picture it out on my mind. It’s scary and im totally frightened… Indeed, you cannot stop the forces of nature when it attacks you. L sad case.

Events and Incidents happening into our life have reasons… I guess, there are a lot of reasons why is it happening to us. Testing us, teaching us to be strong and keeping us united as one. In a state calamity such as this, people gather together to help one another and that is truly a remarkable mark of Unity. Let just not lose our faith on Him. This is the time to hold on each others hands, setting aside our differences and accepting the new challenges that may arrive. Whatever race, beliefs we got,  we are brothers and sisters no matter what.

Live and cherish life as possible as we could!

Pray. Live. Love

Pray for Japan, and pray for the World!
