do u want a diamond ring

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 shewanted.As her birthday approached, this lady awaited signs that her husbandhad purchased the diamond ring.Finally, on the morning of her birthday, her husband called her into his study.Her husband told her how proud he was to 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 and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible,with the wife's name embossed in gold.Angrily, she raised her voice to her husband and said, 'With all your money you give me a Bible?' And stormed out of the house leaving her husband. Many years passed and the lady was very successful in business. Shemanaged to settle for a more beautiful house and a wonderful family,but realized her ex-husband was very old, and thought perhaps sheshould go to visit him. She had not seen him for many years.But before she could make arrangements, she received a telegramtelling her that her ex-husband had passed away, and willedall of his possessions to her. She needed to come back immediatelyand take care of things.When she arrived at her ex-husband's house, sudden sadness andregret filled her heart. She began to search through her ex-husband'simportant papers and saw the still new Bible, just as she had left ityears before.With tears, she opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. Herex-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,give what is good to those who ask Him?'As she read those words, a tiny package dropped from the back ofthe Bible. It had a diamond ring, with her name engraved on it --the same diamond ring which she saw at the showroom.On the tag was the date of her birth, and the words. 'LUV U ALWAYS'.How many times do we miss God's blessings, because they are notpackaged as we expected?
