TODAY'S MYTHOLOGICAL INSPIRATIONAL MAGIC
_____________________________________________________________________________
There once lived a little girl who absolutely adored cats. She loved the way they felt and how strong and independent they seemed in her precious eyes. She had asked her parents if she could have a cat of her own for what seemed like an eternity. And yet her parents reply never wavered. They always answered her request with a stern NO!
And so one night, before lying down for bed, this little girl got down on her knees and said a special prayer to God. “God, I have something to ask of you. I don't have many friends in my neighborhood and sometimes I get very lonely. I was wondering if you could somehow send me a cat of my very own. I promise that if you do, I will always love and take care of it with all of my heart. Thank you for listening to me God. I BELIEVE in you and know you answer all prayers in your own special way!"
The very next day, three streets away from where this special little girl lived, a kind woman was washing her dishes when she looked up at the Gi-normous tree that stood in her from yard. She saw a cat that was desperately trying to climb down the tree but had become stuck amongst many of its thick branches.
She could see the poor cat was absolutely terrified as it cried out for help. This woman was an enormous lover of animals and immediately stopped what she was doing and went outside to see how she might be able to assist the cat in getting down from the tree.
But as soon as she approached the tree, her heart sank. The cat was way too high for her to do much of anything to help. Just then, a man who had decided to take a walk in that day's cool, crisp air came upon the woman staring up into the heights of this hulking tree with a heavy heart.
Being the good samaritan, he promptly stopped and asked the woman if every thing was OK. She preceded to tell him about the scared cat that was stuck up in the tree right before them. Also a lover of animals, he decided to try and help this petrified animal.
So he began to climb up the tree toward the cat. At first, he made quick progress making his way almost halfway up the tree. But then the branches began to become too thick for him to continue his Journey.
After stopping to think for several moments, he decided to make one last attempt to rescue this cat from its bondage. Against his better judgement, he leapt with all his might just high enough to grab ahold of the very branch which the cat was clawing too. But just as soon as he attempted to pull himself up onto the branch to grab the cat, the branch began to harshly bend back and the man lost his grip. As soon as he did, this elastic branch flung out of the man's clutches and the force sent the cat flying through the air!!
At that very moment, the lonely little girl who had sent a very special request to God the night before was playing in her backyard. She suddenly heard a shrieking sound and as she looked up in the sky, that very cat came flying directly into her arms.
Absolutely filled with utter delight, she hugged the cat close to her heart. She then looked up to the Heavens above and Thanked God for answering her prayers!
So the next time you pray to God, ALWAYS Re-member that as you Ask, So it shall be given!!
