Oh God, Where Are You?

Kishanlal who was living with peace in worshipping God, suddenly he and his family were stunned by the problems. A goon Gagan extorted him and occupied his house, and he along with his family came on the road. Kishanlal, the elder of the family was broken by this. He complained to the Lord in the nearby temple, "Oh Lord, I worshipped you for a whole life without any kind of expectation. I never demanded anything from you, just once, only for the last time I'm asking you for one thing. Do some miracles, the one who has made us helpless, teach a lesson to this Gagan. Get my home back to me, give me a chance, and I'll never demand anything else from you."


Days passed after this incident. Gagan was living peacefully in their house. And Kishanlal used to reside in a hut on the roadside, with the hope that one day God will help them. But it never seemed that God is in a mood to teach Gagan a lesson. Kishanlal was disappointed and again he went to the temple for complaining to God. He begged God to teach Gagan a lesson. With a ray of hope he again came back to his hut. God will punish him with this hope some days passed, but it didn't make a difference. Gagan was enjoying, Kishanlal was suffering. Kishanlal couldn't see such a condition of his family. Trust on God was lowering down. He looked at the sky and screamed, "Oh God, Where are you?" and at last being disappointed, he made up his mind to take the last step. He planned to commit suicide by jumping off in the nearby river. To end up his life he was going towards the river, at that time he witnessed a temple on the way. So with the hope of praying for the last time to God, he went into the temple. With extreme sadness he spoke, "Oh Lord, I worshipped you for a whole life without any kind of expectation, I demanded something from you in such condition, but you didn't give me that. God, enjoyment to him and suffering for me? Is this justice? Oh God, Where are you? I asked for just one chance and that too you didn't give me."



Crying, he stood before God joining his hands and he felt some voices coming from a distance. That voice was of his inner heart, or maybe of Lord himself! "Son, you're expecting something from me? Even I'm expecting something from you. Just give me a chance to help you. Gather some courage and file a case against Gagan. And just see how I'll teach him a lesson. Don't be tense son; I'm here only, with you."

 

Moral: Ask for God's help in something. But God will do all things, don't expect that. Some people expect others to help them. But in return, they never try to do work and they think that the other person will do work for him. Work would never get done. And then they're ready to blame the other person.
