A story is told of a little girl that would not take a handful of cherries when the general store owner told her to take one After several times of saying no, the owner told her to hold out her hands and he filled them with the cherries she loved.
On the way home, Momma asked her why should would not take a handful. She sad, "He has bigger hands."
Sometimes we just need to wait until God gives us want instead of getting it ourselves even when what we want is before us with easy access because we rob ourselves of bigger blessings for He does have bigger hands than ours. Instead of taking we just need to reach out and receive to get a double portion.
