Uncle Cheong Lai told us a story during his sermon today and I thought it'd be nice to share with you guys. (:
To make the story more interesting and light and maybe a tad cuter, I decided to draw out pictures! Hope my art classes back in primary and secondary school didn't fail me. HAHA. Here goes!
This Christian guy passed away, but like all Christians do, ended up in Heaven. He was outside Heaven's gate, but before going through the door, he wanted to find out how Hell was like. So a kind angel (a pink one) agreed to bring him down to check it out.
Hell - Hot, smoky and dark...
Then the Christian guy saw this HUGEEEE bowl in the middle of Hell. The bowl is filled with really yummy soup!
And around the bowl stood many people (from Hell)!!
When the man noticed the people, they were all skinny and looking all sick and hungry.
Every of the Hell people had a really long spoon each and they need the spoons to scoop soup from the really big bowl.
However, the spoons were all too long! Before they even tried to put soup into their mouths, all the soup had already spilled over everywhere!
The man thought: "Hmm, no wonder they all looked skinny and sick. They don't have nourishment!!"
So off went the Christian guy and the lil' pink angel back to Heaven. They were greeted by more pink lil' angels and sweet music. (:
When he went through Heaven's gate, he saw yet another big bowl of soup!!
And around the bowl stood many people too! Just like what he saw in Hell.
But when he noticed his companions in Heaven, he noticed that they all looked healthy and rosy! A total opposite of those in Hell!
All of them have got a spoon each too.
"But why the difference between the people in Heaven and Hell?"
Then the Christian guy noticed what his companions were doing...
People in Heaven were stretching their long spoons to the other side of the bowl and feeding one another! :D:D:D
SO, it's always good to help one another! A verse relevant to this story:
"So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets." - Matthew 7:12
Share and spread the love, people! :)
Out!
