The Cross Room
A young man was at the end of his rope. Seeing no way out he
dropped to his knees in prayer. "Lord, I can't go on," he said.
"I have too heavy a cross to bear."
The Lord replied, "My son, if you can't bear its weight, just
place your cross inside this room. Then open that other door
and pick out any you wish."
The young man was filled with relief. "Thank you Lord," he sighed, and
he did what he was told. Upon entering the other door, he saw many
other crosses, some so large the tops weren't even visible.
Then he spotted a tiny cross leaning against the far wall. "I'd
like that one Lord," he whispered.
And the Lord replied, "My son, that is the cross you just brought in."
