故事里的人生(1):金元宝的故事

 

 

在偏避的山下有一座关帝庙,信者甚众,皆因关老爷似乎有求必应,屡屡显灵。

有几个做工的穷人,经常从关帝庙路过,有时也进庙歇息,奉上一炷香,求关老爷保佑。

有一天,周仓问关老爷:这几个凡俗夫子虽然愚昧,却也不乏虔诚,为何老爷不关照他们?

关老爷答:不是我不关照,是他们命福薄,无缘消受。

周仓说:你要是把福禄送给他们,难道他们会不要?

关老爷说:即便我肯送,他们还是无福要。

周仓说:我就不信有那么笨的人。这样吧,今天他们赶车路过,你把金元宝摆在必经之处,我就不信他们不捡。

关老爷叹口气:好吧。

到了晌午,这几个推着车再次路过。快到关帝庙了,有一个说:我们也没少烧香,关老爷就是不肯开恩。今天咱哥几个闭上眼,看也不看他。车子来到了关帝庙前,车轮被金元宝卡住,车夫一脚踢开,说:关老爷故意拿砖头卡我们的车,以后再也不信他了。

关老爷对周仓说:你看见了吧?

周仓叹了一口气,无语。

很多人觉得,这个故事太浅,生活中不会有这样的事这样的人。其实,不但有,而且很多。只不过,很多时候,我们就跟那些车夫一样,自己蒙住了自己的眼睛,所以看不见。世间祈福祷告的很多,但觉得应验的很少。无它,皆因上天给了我们生命,给了我们智力,给了我们体能,给了我们机遇,而我们坐在那里等候。

God helps those who help themselve.
