During the Great Depression, a wealthy Baker summoned the poorest 20 children in the city and said to them: "Before God brings good times. You can pick up a loaf of bread every day!
Every morning the hungry children swarmed around the basket of bread and you pushed me and shouted, because they all wanted the biggest loaf of bread. When they get the bread. Instead of saying thank you to the good Baker, he ran away.
There was only Gelinqin, the little girl in poor clothes, who did not quarrel with the crowd or fight with others. She stood humbly aside, waiting for the other children to leave before she picked up the smallest loaf of bread left in the basket. She never forgot to kiss the Baker's hand to show her gratitude before running home happily with the bread. One day, after the other children had left, the timid little Gretchen got a smaller bread than the original. But she still did not forget to kiss the Baker and express her sincere gratitude to him. After returning home, my mother cut the bread and found that there were several shiny new silver coins hidden inside. Mother exclaimed in surprise, Gelinqin, send the money back at once. The Baker must have accidentally fallen in while kneading the dough. Hurry and go and give the money to the good Baker himself! "
When the little girl returned the silver coin, the Baker said," No, my child, it is not wrong; I put it there deliberately. I 'll tell you one thing: a man of humility, God will give him happiness. May you always have a quiet, grateful heart. Go home and tell your mother that the money is God's reward. "
Afterword:
The humility of the heart is like the sky in the universe, like the oceans and valleys on the earth. The humility is great because of tolerance, and it is great and powerful. Heaven will contend with him who is vindictive. A man of meekness, heaven will yield to him.
