The boat

Good afternoon, I hope you are well, today I want to share this beautiful story with you, I hope you like it.

A man was asked to paint a boat. He brought his paint and brushes and began to paint the boat a bright red, as requested by the owner.
While painting, he noticed a small hole in the hull, and calmly repaired it. When he finished painting, he received his money and left.
The next day, the owner of the boat went to the painter and presented him with a check, much higher than the payment for the painting. The painter was surprised and said:
"You already paid me to paint the boat, sir!" But this is not because of the paint job. It's for repairing the hole in the boat.
Ah! But it was such a small service ... certainly not worth paying me such a high amount for something so insignificant.
My dear friend, you don't understand.
Let me tell you what happened:
"When I asked you to paint the boat, I forgot to mention the hole."
When the boat dried up, my children took the boat and went fishing.
"They didn't know there was a hole." I was not at home at the time. When I came back and noticed that they had taken the boat, I was desperate because I remembered that the boat had a hole.
Imagine my relief and joy when I saw them return from fishing. So, I examined the boat and found out that you had repaired the hole! "See, now, what you did?
You saved my children's lives! I don't have enough money to pay for your "little" good deed "
So no matter who, when, or how, continue to help, support, wipe tears, listen carefully, and carefully repair any "leaks" you find.
You never know when they need us, or when God has a nice surprise for us to be useful and important to someone.
Along the way, you may have repaired numerous 'ship holes' without realizing how many lives you have saved. "
