One day, a farmers old blind horse fell into the farmers useless old well. Since the farmer thought it would be more trouble than it was worth to haul the hourse out, he figured he could finish off two birds with one stone, so to speak. So he decided to fill in the well and bury the old nag at the same time.
The problem was, that, as he shoveled in the dirt, the horse just shook it off and kept treading it under his feet. Eventually, as the dirt rose in the well, so did the horse, until he finally climbed out at the top and walked off to the pasture.
The moral of the story is, of course, that we dont need to be buried by hard times, discouragements, or calamities. Unless, of course, were willing to stand still and let someone shovel dirt in our face.
ASK FOR WHAT YOU WANT!
