Thought

A child goes shopping with his mom. The shopkeeper pleased by the boy's innocence, opens a boxes of candies and offers them to child. The boy innocently and lovingly refuses to pick up any candies. The shopkeeper and the boy's mother prod the child to pick up candies, but he calmly and smilingly denies.

The shopkeeper, accepting that boy will not take candies, picks up candies himself and gives them to the boy. The boy willingly accepts them and keeps the candies in his pocket.

On their way home, the mother asked her son, "when the shopkeeper opened the boxes of candies for you, you did not pick it up, however when he picked up the candies and gave you, you accepted them, why my dear?" The boy says, "mom my hands are small, if I had picked it on my own, I would have been able to pick up just 2 or 3. However shopkeeper's hands were big, so when he picked up and gave them to me I got a lot more candies."

Similarly, when God gives us something, it's as per God's will and will be much more beyond our imagination. We should always strive for it and be grateful and thankful for it. A true giver will never be miserly towards what they have to offer you.
