the rain became a brook, and
then a mighty river, carrying
away trees and earth. But one
big rock remained unmoved by
the river.
Hashu said: as that rock
stronger than the cloud that
forms the river? | wish | were
that rock" Again a change came
and Hashu became the rock. A
man came with hammer and
chisel and began to hack at the
rock, chips flying everywhere.
Hashu cried out !: Man is
stronger than the rock; o, | wish
l were a man again" And the
voice came to him again -
"Hashu, be yourself again."
He found out that all the
things in the universe that seem
to have real strength and power,
man is the strongest. And if he
does the work laid out for him,
no matter if he is stone cutter or
king, he will have happy and
full life, and a life full of mean
ing for others, too.
Don't we often look for too
much in life? Always seeking
something better, something we
do not have. And in this endless
seeking we have only discomfort.
How much more satisfying to do
as Paul-learn to be content
with what we are and have, and
use it to bring happiness TO 9TH
erS as well as to ourselves. God
puts us in this world, and he
gives us opportunities and abil-
tiles. and if we use them rightly
we shall bring happiness and
contentment to ourselves and TO
others, and glory TO God
Happiness is not an end 10 be
attained; it is but by-product OF
cheerful and loving service 70
God and TO our fellowman The
only happy people in this world
have been those who tried 10
serve God.

Paul, the great apostle Of
Christ, had given up riches,
prestige and a place as leader OF
his people to become a preacher
and teacher of the Gospel OF
Jesus Christ. Many times he was
beaten, put in prison, he was
hungry. tired. in danger of death
but he never complained, for, as
he wrote the people at Phillip,
in these words-"I have learned
in whatsoever state l am, there
with to be content"
So many people today could
be like Paul, but they are easily
discouraged when things go
wrong, when other folks are I'M
true to them, when things they
try to do seem to backfire. They
are not satisfied to do as Paul
accept what they have and cir
cumstanceS as they are, and
work to make the best of it all.
The story goes that Japanese
stone cutter grew very diScour-
aged hacking away at a stone,
and said: why must l be poor
all my life; why can't | have
riches and power? | wish | were
the emperor" And suddenly he
heard a voice saying: 'Hashu,
be the emperor" And in that
moment he became the emperor
of Japan, with soldiers all about
him.
But the sun shone down hot
upon him and he said: is the
sun stronger than the emperor? |
wish were the sun" And in
that instant he became the sun,
shining down on the fields of the
earth.
AS he shone, a small cloud
came between him and the earth,
and HaShu said: is something
of this world stronger than the
sun? l wish | were that cloud "
And he became cloud and
rained water on the earth. And
