TOUCHING STORY:MUST READ

One day, a poor boy who was selling goods from door to door to pay his way
through school, found he had only one thin dime left, and he was hungry.
He decided he would ask for a meal at the next house. However, he lost his
nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door.
Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water! . She thought he looked
hungry so brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it so slowly, and
then asked, How much do I owe you?"
You don't owe me anything," she replied. "Mother has taught us never to
accept pay for a kindness."
He said ... "Then I thank you from my heart."

As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger physically, but
his faith in God and man was strong also. He had been ready to give up and
quit.

Many year's later that same young woman became critically ill. The local
doctors were baffled. They finally sent her to the big city, where they
called in specialists to study her rare disease.
Dr. Howard Kelly was called in for the consultation. When he heard the
name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes.
Immediately he rose and went down the hall of the hospital to her room.
Dressed in his doctor's gown he went in to see her. He recognized her at
once.
He went back to the consultation room determined to do his best to save
her life. From that day he gave special attention to her case.
After a long struggle, the battle was won.
Dr. Kelly requested the business office to pass the final bill to him for
approval. He looked at it, then wrote something on the edge, and the bill
was sent to her room. She feared to open it, for she was sure it would
take the rest of her life to pay for it all. Finally she looked, and
something caught her attention on the side of the bill. She read these
words ...

"Paid in full with one glass of milk"
(Signed) Dr. Howard Kelly.

Tears of joy flooded her eyes as her happy heart prayed: "Thank You,
God, that Your love has spread broad through human hearts and hands."

There's a saying which goes something like this: Bread cast on the water
comes back to you. The good deed you do today may benefit you or someone
you love at the least expected time. If you never see the deed again at
least you will have made the world a better place - And, after all, isn't that what life is all about?

If you believe, press LIKE and type ''kindness pays''.

One paramedic dead, five others quarantined in Al Ain, UAE, after being infected with Mers

One Filipino paramedic died and five other medics from the Al Ain Rescue and Ambulance Section have been quarantined after being infected with the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (Mers-CoV), said official from the UAE Ministry of Interior.

In a statement on Friday, the Ministry of Interior said the six cases “were diagnosed during the periodic medical examinations”.

The ministry said it “has taken all necessary preventive health measures by placing the patients under quarantine. The ministry has also been in touch with community members, who have been transferred lately to hospitals to check on their health condition as a precaution.”

The Mers death and quarantine in the UAE comes three days after the emergency unit at King Fahad Hospital in the Saudi Red Sea city of Jeddah was closed as a precautionary measure amid reports that several people fell ill with Mers coronavirus.
Earlier this week, Saudi health authorities had reported the deaths of another two men and four new cases of Mers, bringing the death toll from the respiratory disease in the country to 66.

At least 11 medical staff have been reported to have contracted the virus, a spokesperson at the King Fahad hospital said.

Why Do we feel sleepy in Prayer, But stay awake through a 3 hour movie?

Why Do we feel sleepy in Prayer,




But stay awake through a 3 hour movie?




Why are we so bored when we look at the HOLY BOOK,




But find it easy to read other books?




Why is it so easy to ignore a msg about God,




Yet we forward the nasty ones?




Why are Prayers getting smaller,




But bars and clubs are expanding?




Why is it so easy to worship a celebrity,




But very difficult to engage with God?




Think about it, are you going to forward this?




Are you going to ignore it, cause you think you will get laughed at?




Forward this to all your friends.




80% of you won’t forward this.




God said:

If you deny me in front of your friends, I will deny you on the day of judgment:




When one door closes , God opens two : If God has opened doors for you,




send this message to everyone including me….




God has no BLACKBERRY but he’s my favorite contact … !!




He is not on FACEBOOK but he is my best friend …. !!

He is not on TWITTER but I still follow him …. !!




& even without the INTERNET I am always connected to him …..!!




He is not on WHATSAPP but he’s always online …..!!



GOD IS GOOD

HAPPY EASTER

Funny phone conversations--HAHAHA

A boss wondered why one of his most valued employees had not phoned in sick one day.


Having an urgent problem with one of the main computers, he dialed the employee’s cell phone number and was greeted with a child’s whisper.


“Hello.”

“Is your daddy home?” he asked.

“Yes,” whispered the small voice.

“May I talk with him?”

The child whispered, “No.”


Surprised and wanting to talk with an adult, the boss asked, “Is your Mommy there?”

“Yes,” whispered the small voice.

“May I talk with her?”

Again the small voice whispered, “No.”


Hoping there was somebody with whom he could leave a message, the boss asked, “Is anybody else there?”


“Yes,” whispered the child, “a policeman”


Wondering what a cop would be doing at his employee’s home, the boss asked, “May I speak with the policeman?”


“No, he’s busy”, whispered the child.

“Busy doing what?”

“Talking to Daddy and Mommy and the Fireman,” the whisper answered.


Growing more worried as he heard what sounded like a helicopter through the earpiece on the phone, the boss asked, “What is that noise?”


“A helicopter.” answered the whispering voice.

“What is going on there?” demanded the boss, now truly apprehensive.


Again, whispering, the child answered, “The search team just landed the helicopter.”


Alarmed, concerned and a little frustrated the boss asked, “What are they searching for?”


Still whispering, the young voice replied with a muffled giggle. “ME.!!

Arthur is 90 years old. He’s played golf every day since his retirement 25 years ago.

One day he arrives home looking downcast. “That’s it,” he tells his wife. “I’m giving up golf.

My eyesight has become so bad that once I hit the ball I couldn’t see where it went.”

His wife sympathizes and makes him a cup of tea.

As they sit down she says, “Why don’t you take my brother with you and give it one more try.”

“That’s no good” sighs Arthur, “your brother’s a hundred and three. He can’t help.”

“He may be a hundred and three”, says the wife, “but his eyesight is perfect.”

So the next day Arthur heads off to the golf course with his brother-in-law.

He tees up, takes a mighty swing and squints down the fairway.

He turns to the brother-in-law and says, “Did you see the ball?”

“Of course I did!” replied the brother-in-law. “I have perfect eyesight”.

“Where did it go?” says Arthur.

“I don’t remember.”
