It was the first day of college for Candace, as she took a long deep breath before stepping inside the college campus. It was for the first time that she was introduced to the latest trends of the modern world . Boys with cool goggles and lusty rides were eye catching phenomenon for her. She was influenced by the environment, but something inside her heart was something hidden . She felt all alone as she had no friend to communicate or share things. She started living in solitude.
(After few days)
It was yet another morning for Candace as she stepped out from the hostel and came to the lockeroom of her college to take some things. She was surprised to see a rose inside her locker. She had a look at her sides just wanting to hide it from everyone. She then took the rose and pondered on the same thought that who must have kept it. The other day when she opened her locker, there was yet another rose waiting for her to confer it. Candace blushed and took the rose. Now this was being something really common for her. She knew by this time that there was a silent lover seeking her attention. Days went by and the roses kept on satiating Candace's flower pot and her mind. All of a sudden,it stopped. She did not receive any roses from her silent lover. She got depressed and again started living in solitude . All it was her silent tears which used to speak up .She used to check every corner of her locker in hope that she would find one rose but to no avail. Days after it, once when she checked the locker and went back on her way she found a boy waiting at the steps. The boy said," I am the one who used to give you roses, take these roses which I have brought for you." Candace felt on top of the world as she knew now who had been the one who used to like her. But everything went down the terrain when she realized that the boy had not been giving the roses from few days. She thought that he must be playing with her emotions all these days . She immediately rejected the roses that he was offering and starting leaving his presence. There the boy took hold of her hand and said,"though my words rhymed ,it never became a pleasant song for your ears".
He added," though I kept on giving you hints and suprises of my love ,you never acknowledged my love, just because few days I wasn't able to give you roses , you felt that I stopped loving you ? Just few deserted days fell short infront of the beautiful moments that you cherished, look back and see what you have today , a bunch of roses that you collected and some deserted days of sorrows.In whom would you find delight?"
Candace immediately realized that she had a misconception about the boy. Everything got sort out and it was good. Candace asked the boy that how did he manage to keep a rose every day in her locker as the locker was locked everyday by her. The boy laughed at this, and said No, you dint lock it everyday. When I first saw you, I fell for you. I came up with this idea of giving you roses. Once when you kept your locker open I kept a rose inside it .The successive days were a bliss for you ,as you realised that someone's loving you.In the curiosity to take out the rose from the locker you used to forget to lock the door. You were living one of your beautiful moments of life so unknowingly you kept your door unlocked as nothing else bothered you after you took the rose. Locking the door was far yet. I had to go out of the town for two days for some urgent work . In these two days I dint keep a rose for you. But when I came back I brought ten times more roses for you. But when I came to keep the roses, you had locked the door in assumption that I must have played a prank with you. The doors remained closed for the next days too . That is why I wasn't able to keep the roses .
Many times it happens with us too that whenever we share a good loving and true relation with God, he keeps on blessing us. And in that joy we keep the doors of our heart open to allow his blessings to flow. But when his blessings stop coming , we say so easily that God has forsaken me but that is the time we have to trust him.We tend to forget so easily the miracles he did before for us and so some deserted days days fall short in front of the marvellous days which he has shown us. God is waiting for you with thousand times more blessings and love for you but then he finds the door of your heart closed. And we sit back and mourn. Open the doors of your heart.
When I was writing this story , God talked to me in two differnt ways. The first as mentioned above and the second is that we humans tend to find things inside the box. We say hey look , he's got good intelligence in his locker, look she is so lucky to have her love, look he is so handsome ..surely charm is in his locker box. Then when we look at our own locker we find lonliness, bitterness,pain, no love inside it. And we close our doors forever and be distant from God. But no..When I asked God that why isn't your blessings inside my locker box , he said that my locker box isn't sufficient to hold my blessings. We are looking for the right things in the wrong place . We are looking for love in our ego in our self . But God is telling you that come out of that box .Wait upon me and not upon any human. God has a better and bigger box for you.
Stop expecting things to come from your small locker box and wait upon the Lord.
