The only survivor - I Love 'd Story

The only survivor of a shipwreck was washed up on an island. He prayed feverishly for God to rescue him and everyday he scanned the horizon for help, but noone seemed to come. Exhausted he eventually managed to build a hut out of driftwood to protect him from the elements and store his few possessions.

But then one day after scavaging for food he cam home only to see his hut in flames and smoke tolling to the sky. The worst had happened; everything was lost. He was stunned with grief and anger. " God how could you do this to me? " he cried.

Early the next day he was awakened by the sound of a ship that was approaching the island. It had come to rescue him. " How did you know I was here?" asked the weary man. " We saw your smoke signal, " they replied.

It is easy to get discouraged when things are going bad. But we shouldn't loose heart, because God is at work in our lives, even in the midst of suffering and pain. Remember when your hut is burning to the ground it just maybe a smoke signal that summons the grace of God. For all the negative things we have to say to ourselves, God has a positive answer for it......................................
