A young man was getting ready to graduate college. For many months he*had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer's showroom, and knowing*his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.*As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs that his*father had purchased the car.
Finally, on the morning of his graduation**his**father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud**he was*to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed*his*son a beautiful wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed*the*young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible.
Angrily, he*raised his voice at his father and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible?" and stormed out of the house, leaving the holy*book.*He never contacted his father again for long long time. Many years* passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a*beautiful*home and wonderful family, but realized his father was very old, and*thought*perhaps he should go to him. He had not seen him since that graduation*day. Before he could make arrangements, he received a telegram telling*him*his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He*needed to come home immediately and take care things. When he arrived at*his father's house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart.
He**began**to search his father's important papers and saw the still new Bible,* just*as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and* began to turn the pages. As he read those words, a car key dropped from an envelope taped behind the Bible. It had a tag with the dealer's*name,*the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was*the*date of his graduation, and the words. PAID IN FULL.
How many times do we miss GOD blessings because they are not packaged*as*we expected?
