The story of 3 Trees

Once there are these three (3) trees, they are happily and enthusiastically talking about their dreams. The 1st tree said, I want to be the most beautiful treasure chest one day. Where all the most expensive golds, diamonds and jewels will be kept. Everyone will love to have me in their home. The 2nd tree said, I will be the greatest ship in the world where all the kings and queens will be on board. The 3rd tree also said, I will be the tallest tree on earth where all the people will look up to me. When the right time comes, the three trees grow up big and sturdy. One day, a group of loggers saw the 1st tree and said, wow this is so good. This is a good one for our treasure box project. All the most expensive jewelries will be kept here! The 1st tree was happy with what he heard but that did not happen because they made him a cage or pen for sheep and their shepherd. He was sad because his wish did not and will never come true. Then another group of loggers saw the 2nd tree, they said this is the perfect fit for the big ship where all the queens and kings from every nation would be on board. The 2nd tree was also happy with what he heard because finally his dream will come true. But then they only built a small boat where the fishermen will use to catch fish. He was sad and said no queens and kings would want to even look at me. Then the 3rd tree, the loggers just cut it without plans of what they will do about it. The poor tree was just put in a vacant lot where no one would even notice that there's huge tree in it. Then one day, there is this family who was looking for a space because the wife is about to give birth. Then a a big star shine upon this pen, a child was born in a manger and they called Him Jesus. The 1st tree felt a great joy because this was more than his wish. The boat was sailing in the middle of the night when a great storm came and almost put the boat upside down but then they saw a man walking on the waters and calms the storm and join them into the boat. The 2nd tree's wish was granted, the King of Kings, Jesus is on board! The people were shouting and in great chaos when a man grabbed this huge bark along the street and gave it to a man. The Man carried him until they reach mount Sinai and there they crucified Him using this huge and heavy bark. And since then all people from all over the world look up to Him and give praise. The 3rd tree's wish came true, he became an instrument in the fulfilment of Jesus's mission to save the world. All three (3) trees wishes came true, it may not come easy and as they have pictured it to be but God made a way. The 3 felt sad because they thought it's already impossible for their wish to come true but God gave them more than what they wished for. May all of us learn from this story and not be dishearten if our plans and wish will not go on our side. It only means that God is paving the way, the best way for us. All we need to do is trust His ways because His plans is far better than ours. He is in total control of everything, just let go and let God. ...^•°... Thanks for reading and God bless us all!
