"Things aren't always what they seem."- a little story

here's a story that i read everytime i have a problem in my
life, and trust me it's true! you just have to believe and
have faith. and really take the last part in to deep
thought and you will see it's true......

Two traveling angels stopped to spend
the night in the home of a wealthy family.
The family was rude and refused to let
the angels stay in the mansion's guest room.

Instead the angels were givin a small space in
the cold basement. As they made their
bed on the hard floor, the older angel
saw a hole in the wall and repaired it.
When the younger angel asked why,
the older angel replied,
"things aren't always what they seem."

The next night the pair came to rest
at the house of a very poor, but very hospitable
farmer nad his wife. After sharing what little food
they had, the couple let the angels sleep in their bed
where they could have a good night's rest.
When the sun came up the next morning
the angels found the farmer and his wife in tears.
Their only cow, whose milk had been their soul income,
lay dead in the field.

The younger angel was infuriated and
asked the older angel how she could have let this
happen?

The first man had everything, and yet you helped
him, she accused. The second family had little but
was willing to share everything, and you let the cow
die.

"things aren't always what they seem."
the older angel replied. "When we stayed in the
basement of the mansion, i noticed
there was gold stored in that hole in the wall. Since
the owner was so obsessed with greed and unwilling to
share his good fortune, i sealed the wall so he
wouldn't find it."

"Then last night as we slept in the farmers bed, the
angel of death came for his wife, i gave him the
cow instead. Things aren't always what they seem."

Sometimes that is exactly what happens when things don't
turn out the way they should. If you have faith, you just
need to trust that every outcome is always to your
advantage.

You might not know until some time later....
