3 BULLETS

There once was a man who had nothing for his family to
eat.

He had an old rifle and three bullets. So, he decided
that he would go out hunting and kill some wild game
for dinner.

As he went down the road, he saw a rabbit. He shot at
the rabbit and missed it.

The rabbit ran away.

Then he saw a squirrel and fired a shot at the
squirrel and missed it.

The squirrel disappeared into a hole in a cottonwood
tree.

As he went further, he saw a large wild "Tom" turkey
in the tree, but he had only one bullet remaining.

A voice spoke to him and said, "Pray first, aim high
and stay focused".

However, at the same time, he saw a deer which was a
better kill.

He brought the gun down and aimed at the deer. But,
then he saw a rattlesnake between his legs about to
bite him, so he naturally brought the gun down further
to shoot the rattlesnake.

Still, the voice said again to him, "I said 'Pray, Aim
high and Stay focused?

So, the man decided to listen to God's voice.

He prayed, then aimed the gun high up in the tree and
shot the wild turkey.

The bullet bounced off the turkey and killed the deer.

The handle fell off the gun and hit the snake in the
head and killed it.

And, when the gun had gone off, it knocked him into a
pond.

When he stood up to look around, he had fish in all
his pockets, a dead deer and a turkey to eat for his
family.

The snake (Satan) was dead simply because the man
listened to God.

Moral of the story:

Pray first before you do anything, Aim and shoot high
in your goals, and stay focused on God.

Never let others discourage you concerning your past.
The past is exactly that, the past.

Live every day one day at a time and remember that
only God knows our future and that he will not put you
through any more than you can bear.

Do not look to man for your blessings, but look to the
doors that only He has prepared in advance for you in
your favor.

Wait, be still and patient: keep God first and
everything else will follow.
