young mind

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. 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's blessings because they are not packaged as we expected?

  1. This way my partner Wesley Virgin's tale launches with this SHOCKING and controversial VIDEO.

    As a matter of fact, Wesley was in the army-and shortly after leaving-he found hidden, "SELF MIND CONTROL" secrets that the government and others used to get everything they want.

    These are the EXACT same methods tons of famous people (especially those who "come out of nowhere") and the greatest business people used to become wealthy and famous.

    You've heard that you use less than 10% of your brain.

    That's because most of your brainpower is UNTAPPED.

    Maybe that conversation has even taken place INSIDE OF YOUR very own mind... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's mind about seven years back, while driving a non-registered, trash bucket of a car without a license and with $3 on his banking card.

    "I'm so frustrated with living payroll to payroll! Why can't I become successful?"

    You took part in those types of conversations, isn't it right?

    Your success story is going to start. All you need is to believe in YOURSELF.
