A dog was so faithful that the woman could leave her baby
with the dog and go out to attend other matters.
She always returned to find the child soundly asleep
with the dog faithfully watching over him.
One day something tragic happened.
The woman as usual, left the baby in the "hands" of this
faithful dog and went out shopping. When she returned,
she discovered rather a nasty scene, there was a total mess.
The baby's cot was dismantled; his nappies & clothes torn to shreds
with blood stains all over the bedroom where she left the child & the dog.
Shocked, the woman wailed as she began looking for the baby.
All of a sudden, she saw the faithful dog emerging from under the bed.
It was covered with blood and licking its mouth as it had just finished a delicious meal.
The woman went berserk & assumed that the dog had devoured her baby.
Without much thought she beat the dog with wood to death.
But as she continued searching for the "remains" of her child,
she beheld another scene. Close 2 the bed was the baby who,
although lying on bare floor, was safe and under the bed;
and the body of a snake torn to pieces in what must have been
a fierce battle between the snake & the dog which was now dead.
Then reality dawned on the woman who now began to
understand what took place in her absence.
Dog fought to protect the baby from the ravenous snake.
■ It was too late for her now to make amends because
in her impatience and anger,she had killed the faithful dog.
■ How often have we misjudged people & torn them to shreds with
harsh words and deeds before we have had time to evaluate the situation?
It is called SIN OF PRESUMPTION.
Presuming things our way without taking the trouble
to find out exactly what the situation really is.
Little patience can drastically reduce major life long mistakes.
WHO ARE YOU MIS-JUDGING NOW!!!
WHAT ARE YOU MIS-READING NOW!!!
WHAT ARE YOU MIS-HEARING NOW!!!
HOW ARE YOU MIS-SEEING NOW!!!
