The Toe-Tapper

One day a man came to a small town and needed a place to stay, so he went to the nearest church. He met a group of people arguing on how best they could please God. "I will help you, the man told them, but you must promise to use what i give you to glorify God." They agreed. He then went on to give each of them gifts.

One was to be pianist, another a flutist, to another a violin and yet to another he gave toe-tapping (using his feet to tap the floor). At first the team worked together and their production was marvelous till one day when during a practice session, the violinist said to the pianist, I am so glad i have the job of playing violin. I thank God i am not ordinary toe-tapper.' That statement so hurt the toe-tapper that he dropped out of the group. The result was that the next concert was a flop.

Then the flutist said in frustration: "Without the toe-tapper here, i don't know when to come in for my part." The saxophonist said the same thing till the violinist with tears pologized: I am the reason for this mess. I thought i was so important that did not need the help toe-tapper; Thay apogized to the toe-tapper and next sunday, thier church was blessed and God looked down, smiled and even winked at the toe-tapper.

YOU ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO GOD EVERYWHERE YOU ARE.
