>> Two traveling angels stopped to spend the night
>> in the home of a wealthy family.
>>
>> The family was rude and refused to let the angels
>> stay in the mansion's guest room.
>>
>> Instead the angels were given a small space in
>> the cold basement.
>>
>> As they made their bed on the hard floor, the
>> older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it.
>>
>> When the younger angel asked why, the older angel
>> replied,
>>
>> "Things aren't always what they seem."
>>
>> The next night the pair came to rest at the house
>> of a very poor, but very hospitable farmer and his
>> wife.
>>
>> After sharing what little food they had the couple
>> let the angels sleep in their bed where they could
>> have a good night's rest.
>>
>> When the sun came up the next morning the angels
>> found the farmer and his wife in tears.
>>
>> Their only cow, whose milk had been their sole
>> income, lay dead in the field.
>>
>> The younger angel was infuriated and asked the
>> older angel how could you have let this happen?
>>
>> The first man had everything, yet you helped him,
>> she accused.
>>
>> The second family had little but was willing to
>> share everything, and you let the cow die.
>>
>> "Things aren't always what they seem," the older
>> angel replied.
>>
>> "When we stayed in the basement of the mansion, I
>> noticed there was gold stored in that hole in the
>> wall.
>>
>> Since the owner was so obsessed with greed and
>> unwilling to share his good fortune, I sealed the
>> wall so he wouldn't find it."
>>
>> "Then last night as we slept in the farmers bed,
>> the angel of death came for his wife. I gave him
>> the cow instead.
>>
>> Things aren't always what they seem."
>>
>> Sometimes that is exactly what happens when things
>> don't turn out the way they should. If you have
>> faith, you just need to trust that every out come
>> is always to your advantage. You just might not
>> know it until some time later...
