                                                SCRIPTURE READING

A reading from the gospel of Matthew chapter 17 verse 20

The word of the Lord. Thanks be to God”

STORY

It was a remote place best known for sculpture shops. There lived a father and son.

Father was a sculptor and had a shop. He never made any profits from the shop.

In his free time, Father used to teach his young son the art of sculpture.

While teaching the art, he also taught him about work ethics and the faith one should have in his work.

He told his son, “We are not selling as many sculptures as we wanted. But one day our work will reach the right people. From that day, there will be no looking back.”

As time passed, his son learned the complete art of sculpturing. He was helping his father along with his studies. Other Sculptures in the area closed their shops and went for other jobs.

They used to advise the father, “Leave this work and look for any other source of income. You will never earn from this.”

But the father continued selling the sculptures.

One day, a businessman was travelling in his car and saw the sculptures shining like gold in the rays of the sun.

He visited the shop and explored the sculptures.

Then he told the father, “These sculptures look great. They have high demand in other countries.

Can we both do a business together?

You make the sculpture, and I’ll sell it.”

Father and son were happy with the offer from the businessman.

They agreed to the deal. They started making more Sculptures, and soon their business grew multi-fold.

The Moral of the story is :-

When we pursue something in life, the first step is to have complete faith in it.

There will be challenges during the process, but if we have faith, we can succeed.

PRAYER

Let us join our hands and bow our heads in prayer.

Almighty God,

You said that they are blessed who have not seen and yet believe.

Yet while you are so close to us, we sometime doubt your presence

and refuse to believe

unless we touch and see.

Strengthen our faith that you

Are with us always as the way,

The truth, and the life.

Amen.

Let us continue by saying, The Lord’s Prayer together.

Kindly stand at attention for the Pledge and the School Song.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Faith doesn’t mean trusting God to stop the storm, but trusting him to strengthen us as we walk through the storm.

Thank you and have a wonderful day.
