A PRAYER A DAY KEEPS EVIL AWAY.
​

There is a story of about a sea captain who in his retirement skippered
a boat taking day-trippers to Shetland Islands.
On one trip, the boat was full of young people. They laughed at the old captain when they saw him say a prayer before sailing out, because the day was fine and the sea was calm.

However they weren't long at sea when a storm suddenly blew up and the
boat began to pitch violently. The terrified passengers came to the captain and asked him to join them in prayer.

But he replied, "I say my prayers when it's calm. When it's rough I attend to my ship."

Here is a lesson for us......

If we cannot and will not seek God in quiet moments of our lives, we are not likely to find him when trouble strikes.

We are more likely to panic. But if we have learnt to seek him and
trust him in quiet moments, then most certainly we will find him when the going gets rough.

I dont understand your question. If it is about pleasing personality and marketting, i might have been wrong in making that connection.

But he was a very successful businessman, manage to run a 100 member strong research lab and market his inventions, getting 1000+ patents for the same.

Hello Yogi, I was a bit confused, trying to link your post to earlier posted messages hence the confusion. Reading your post in isolation, then there is no confusion !!!!! :)

Thanks for reading my posts.

edison, from the post:
HOW ORDINARY PEOPLE OVERCAME FAILURES TO BECOME EXTRA-ORDINARY


"I say my prayers when it's calm. When it's rough I attend to my ship."
Loved it the most.

From the times of buddha, jesus, or probably even before their times, short stories inspire generation after generations. Lovely.

A grandfather was talking to his grandson about how he felt.............

He said, " I feel as if i have two wolves fighting in my heart. "

One wolf is the vengeful, angry, violent one. The other wolf is the loving,
compassionate one . " Both are equally strong!!!!

The grandson asked him , " Then which wolf will win the fight in your heart ? "

The grandfather answered , " THE ONE I FEED !! "
