<b>He needs your hand</b>
Master and disciple are walking through the deserts of Arabia. The Master uses each moment of the journey to teach his disciple about faith.
âEntrust your things to God,â he said. âBecause He never abandons His children.â
When they camped down at night, the Master asked the disciple to tie the horses to a nearby rock.
The disciple went over to the rock, but then remembered what he had learned that afternoon. âThe Master must be testing me. The truth is that I should entrust the horses to God.â
And he left the horses loose.
In the morning he discovered that the animals had run off. Indignant, he sought out the Master.
âYou know nothing about God! Yesterday I learned that I should trust blindly in Providence, so I gave the horses to Him to guard, and the animals have disappeared!â
âGod wanted to look after the horses,â answered the Master. âBut at that moment he needed your hands to tie them up and you did not lend them to Him.â
