THE PACKAGE

A married lady was expecting a birthday gift from her husband. For many months she had admired a beautiful diamond ring in a showroom, and knowing her husband could afford it, she told him that was all she wanted. As her birthday approached, this lady awaited signs that her hubby had purchased the diamond ring.
Finally, on the morning of her birthday, her hubby called her into his study. He told her how proud he was t̶̲̥̅̊ợ̣̣̇̇̇ have such a good wife, and told her how much he loved her. He handed her a beautiful wrapped gift box. Curious, the wife opened the box & found a lovely,leather-bound Bible,with the wife's name embossed in gold. Angrily, she raised her voice at her husband & said, "with all your money you give me a Bible? She stormed out of the house, leaving her husband.
Many years passed & the lady was very successful in business. she managed to settle for a more beautiful house and a wonderful family, but realized her ex-husband was very old, & thought perhaps she should go visit him. she had not seen him for many years. but before she could make arrangement, she received a telegram telling her that her ex-husband had passed away, & willed all his possessions to her. she needed to come back immediately & take care of things. when she arrived at her ex-hubby's house sudden sadness & regret filled her heart. she began to search through her ex-hubby's important papers & saw the still new Bible, just as she had left it years before. With tears she opened the Bible & began to turn the pages. Her ex-husband had carefully underlined a verse, Matt 7:11 'And if you, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children,how much more shall your heavenly father, who is in heaven, not give what is good to those who ask him?'' as she read those words, a tiny package dropped from the back of the Bible. it had a diamond ring wit her name engraved on it. The same diamond ring which she saw at the showroom many years ago. On the tag was the date of her birth, & the words 'LOVE U ALWAYS'. She could not hold back her tears, they freely flowed down her Cheeks! It dawned on her t̶̲̥̅̊ợ̣̣̇̇̇ her Husband was the best thing that ever happened t̶̲̥̅̊ợ̣̣̇̇̇ her!!
