Is Your Hut Burning?

The only survivor of a shipwreck was washed up on a small,

uninhabited island. He prayed feverishly
for God to rescue him, and every day he scanned the horizon for help,
but none seemed forthcoming.
Exhausted, he eventually managed to build a little hut out of driftwood
to protect him from the elements,
and to store his few possessions.
But then one day, after scavenging for food, he arrived home to find his
little hut in flames, the smoke
rolling up to the sky: The worst had happened; everything was lost. He
was stunned with grief and anger.
"God, how could you do this to me!" he cried.
Early the next day, however, he was awakened by the sound of a ship
that was approaching the island.
It had come to rescue him. “How did you know I was here?" asked the
weary man of his rescuers. "We
saw your smoke signal," they replied.
Remember, next time your little hut is burning to the ground, it just may
be a smoke signal that summons
the grace of God.

A po ndodh diçka shume e keqe ne jeten tende?

I vetmi mbijetues i nje anije te mbytur u nxorr i shperlare ne nje, ishull
te vogel te pabanuar. Ai u lut me gjithe shpirt per Zotin qe ta shpetonte
ate, dhe cdo dite ai shikonte ngultas horizonin per ndihme, por askush
nuk u duk se po afrohej. I rraskapitur, ai me ne fund ia doli te ndertonte
nje kasolle te vogel nga thupra qe ta mbroje ate nga dukuri natyrore,
dhe per te ruajtur gjerat qe zoteronte.
Por pastaj nje dite, pasi kerkoi per ushqim, ai arriti ne shtepi, dhe gjeti
kasollen e tij te vogel ne flake, tymi po rrotullonte siper ne qiell. Dhe
me e keqja ndodhi; cdo gje kishte humbur. Ai ishte i tronditur me
dhembje dhe nervozim.
“ Zot si mund te ma besh mua kete! ” ai qau.
Diten tjeter heret, megjithate, ai ishte zgjuar nga zeri i nje anije qe po ju
afronte ishullit. Kishte ardhur per ta shpetuar ate. “ Si e dinit ju qe ishta
ketu? ” pyeti burri i loddhur shpetimtaret e tij. “ Ne pame sinjalin tend
me tym, ” u pergjigjen ato.
Kujtoni, heren tjeter kur kasollja jote po te digjet ne toke, mund te jete
vetem nje sinjal tymi qe thirr hijeshine e Zotit.
