The Beauty Of Dreams

A little boy named Johnny used to hang out at the local corner market. The other boys teased him constantly, saying that Johnny was two bricks shy of a load or two pickles short of a barrel. Puzzled about their behavior, the store owner eavesdropped on their conversation one day. Johnny stood silently as the boys offered him a choice between a nickel or a dime. Johnny took the nickel. The boys immediately laughed, saying he was too dumb to know that the bigger coin was worthless. The store owner took him aside and said, “Johnny, those boys are making fun of you. They think you don’t know a dime is worth more than a nickel. Are you really grabbing the nickel because it’s bigger?” Johnny turned to the store owner and with a big grin on his face, he said, “Well, if I took the dime, they’d stop playing the game. And so far, I’ve saved twenty dollars!” The other boys in the neighborhood may not have had any faith in Johnny, but Johnny certainly had faith in his own abilities!


The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams. Even if no one else around you trusts God as you do, don’t stop trusting Him. In the end, your wisdom will prevail. Anything is possible if you have faith. Mark 9:23 TLB
