I.G.O TV TOUCHING MORAL STORY: A soldier who was finally coming home after having fought in A WAR. He called his parents saying: Mom, Dad, I’m coming home, but I’ve afavor to ask. I have a friend I’d like to bring home with me. His parents: Sure, they replied, we’d love to meet him. The soldier: There’s something you should know, he continued, my friend was hurt pretty badly in the fighting( war ). He lost an arm and a leg. He has nowhere else to go, and I want him to come live with us. His parents: we are sorry to hear that, son. Maybe we can help him find somewhere to live. The soldier: No, Mom and Dad, I want him to live with us. Son, said the father: you don’t know what you’re asking. Someone with sucha handicap would be a terrible burden on us. We have our own lives to live, and we can’t letsomething like this interfere with our lives. I think you should just come home and forget about this guy. He’ll find a way to live on his own. At that point, the son hung up the phone. The parents heard nothing more from him. A few days later, however, they received a call from the police. Their son had died after falling from a building, they were told. The police believed it was suicide. The grief-stricken parents flew to the police station and were taken to the murtuary to identify the body of their son. They recognized him, but to their horror they also discovered something they didn’t know, their son had only one arm and one leg. Their son was talking about himself not actually about any of his friends condition. Moral lesson: The parents in this story are like many of us. We find it easy to love those who are good-looking or fun to have around. But we don’t like people who inconvenience us or make us feel uncomfortable. We would rather stay away from people who aren’t as healthy, beautiful, or smart as we are. Thankfully, there’s someone who won’t treat us that way. Someone who loves us with an unconditional love that welcomes us into the forever family, regardless of how messed up we are. Before u leave this page say a little prayer that God will give you the strength you need to accept people as they are, and to help us to be more understanding of those who are different from us in JESUS MIGHTY NAME. Type Amen to claim this prayer. #LIKE AND SHARE#, IF U LOVED THIS STORY like I.G.O TV I.G.O TV I.G.O TV I.G.O TV
