"There was a beautiful garden with lots of trees in it. A pine tree, which was lamenting all the time, was also there. |
Nash:
God used to visit this garden in the night and ask the tree about its
welfare. And it started, 'Oh!
God! The leaves of all the other trees are simply beautiful! But look at
mine, its all needle shaped. I
don't like it. If only I had golden leaves. Oh… how I would love it!'
|
Nash:
Then God commanded and it was 'so' the next day
morning.
Nimi: Ah! Golden leaves! It would have been simply superb to see!
|
Nimi:
Yes! It was like that. A thief who saw it came in
the night and plundered all the leaves and left it bare! This tree
started lamenting over it. As
usual, God came to the tree.
|
Nash:
It asked God to give glassy leaves so that no
thief can steal! God granted its request.
Nimi: The next day it was so; the glassy leaves shone beautifully but unfortunately a storm arose and all the leaves broke to pieces. Lamentation started! God came!
|
Nash:
The tree asked God for fresh big leaves! God
granted its request. Lisa:
Wow! It would have looked pleasant with that! Nimi: Yes! A shepherd who came by the way also said, 'Wow, today is a feast day for my cattle', and plucked all the leaves from it. |
Nimi:
This lamenting tree went on lamenting over its
plight until God came and asked what should
be done! Finally the pine tree said, 'God, give back my original leaves.'
Nash: God granted it. From that day forward, this pine tree danced joyfully to the tune of air.
|
Nash:
So, whatever God has created. It is good, Lisa.
Lisa: Hereafter, I will praise God all the time for whatever He has provided me. Nimi: Come. We'll praise God. "I will praise God; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made." (Psalm 139:14) |
