79. The Best
Engineer
There lived a good
engineer who was so proud of his work. Once he went to a village for some work,
passing many villages and fields. On his way he saw a creeper of pumpkin
carried with many pumpkins. After going ahead he saw a big banyan tree, on
which many small fruits were there. Seeing this he became surprised and
mockingly said how amazing God's creation was. A weak creeper was carrying big
pumpkins and a big tree was carrying only small fruits. He went from there.
After completing his work when he again returned, he felt exhausted. So he
decided to take a nap under a banyan tree's shade. When he woke up, he saw many
small fruits around himself. Now he mockingly laughed at himself, “If the
banyan tree had fruits as big as pumpkins and they had fallen on his head he
would have died.” Now he understood that God is the best engineer.
Moral: Mysterious are the ways
of God.
