TREES THAT WOOD
once there were three trees on a hill in the woods. They were discussing their hopes and dreams when the first tree said , "Someday i hope to be a treasure chest. i could could be filled with gold, silver and precious gems. i could be decorated with intricate carving and everyone would see the beauty."
Then the second tree said , "Someday i will be a mighty ship. i will take kings and queens across the waters and sail to the corners of the world. Everyone will feel safe in me because of the strenght of my hull."
Finally the third tree said , " I want to grow to be the tallest and straightest tree in the forest ,people will see me on the top of the hill and look up to my branches , and think of the heavens and god how close to them i am reaching. I will be the greatest tree of all the time and people will always remember me."
After a few year of praying that their dreams would come true, a group of woodsmen came upon the trees. When one came to the first tree he said , "This look like a strong tree , i think i should be able to sell the wood to carpenter"... and he began cutting it down. The trees was happy , because he knew that the carpenter would make him into a treasure chest.
At the second tree a woodsman said, "this look like a strong tree , i should be able to sell it to the shipyard." The second tree was happy because he knew he was on his way to becoming a mighty ship.
When the woodsmen came upon to the third tree, the tree was frightened because he knew that if they cut it down his dreams would not come true. One of the woodsmen said , " I don't need anything special from my tree so i'ii take this one ," and he cut it down.
When the first tree arrived at the carpenter , he was made into a feed box for animals . He was then placed in a barn and filled with hay. This was not at all what he had prayed for. The second tree was cut and made into a small fishing boat. His dreams of being a mighty ship and carrying kings had come to an end. The tree was cut into large pieces and leave alone in the dark. The years went by, and the trees forgot about their dreams.
Then one day, a man and woman came to the barn . She gave birth and they placed the baby in the hay in the feed box that was made from the first tree. The man wished that he could have made a crib for the baby, but this manger would have to do. The tree could feel the importance of this event and knew that it had held the greatest treasure of all time. Years later, a group of men got in the fishing boat made from the second tree. One of them was tired and went to sleep. While they were out on the water , a great storm arose and the tree didn't think it was strong enough to keep the men safe. The men woke the sleeping mean, and he stood and said "peace" and the storm stopped. At this time , the tree knew that it had carried the King og Kings in its boat.
Finally someone came and got the third tree . It was carried through the streets as the people mocked the man who was carrying it. When they came to a stop, the man was nailed to the tree and raised in the air to die at the top of the hill. When sunday came, the tree came to realize that it was strong enough to stand at the top of the hill and be as close to god as was possible........................................
The moral of this story is that when thing's don't seem to be going your way , always know that god has a plan for you. If you place your trust in him, he will give you great gift. Each of the trees got what they wanted, just not in the way they had imagined . We don't always know what God plans are for us. We just know that his ways are not our ways, but his ways are always best..
###nak tambah sikit bolehhh..haha....based on the story la kannn... on my opinion la... we should be a grateful person..as we know not everyone got what they wanted, but us??? sometimes kita dapat jugak kannn just the ways yang kita harapkan berbeza... so tetapkan niat yang baik.. inshaALLAH,,, Allah akan bantu kita capai impian kita okayyy... AMIN~
