FOOD FOR THE SOULS

Food for thought...
A sick person in a hospital bed was visited by relatives. The patient was on an oxygen MACHINE and therefore couldn't speak.
As they stood beside the bed, the patient took a pen and piece of paper and wrote a note which he gave to one of the relatives who put it in the shirt pocket and continued their conversation.
After a few minutes, the patient died. The relative picked the note from the pocket to know what he had written. And guess what! Sadly the note read..
."please move, you have stepped on the oxygen pipe, i can't breathe, you are killing me".
Lesson:
Are u the type that usually ignore peoples calls ?
Are u used to ignoring messages from ur contacts ?
Do u normally postpone attending to issues becos u are busy ?
Are u the type that derive pleasure in having many visitors queuing to see you in your office, while u are drinking coffee and gisting with friends inside ur office ?
What if someone is in need of u and placing a call to u but u ignored it ?
What if someone is dying in silence and need your held.? Or do you ignore picking calls because you are already close to the caller ?
Pls. Change your attitude and treat all people as important as your spouse no matter how rich or poor they are , and you shall be growing from grace to grace.
