The Story of Three Trees One day, three young trees expressed their future wishes. The first tree wants to be a treasure chest, which contains the most precious things. The second tree said that he wanted to be a big ship crossing the ocean, with a great king on board. The third tree said that he hoped that no one would cut him down and let him stay in the forest and become a towering tree. People looked up at it and saw God. With the passage of time, the saplings grow longer and longer. At an unexpected time, the woodcutter went up the mountain to cut wood. The first tree became a manger, which contained the savior of all people, the baby Jesus Christ. The second tree turned into a small fishing boat carrying Jesus, the Lord of hosts, and watched Jesus calm the waves at sea. The third tree was cut down and became a rough cross erected on Mount Golgotha. This cross turned out to be the instrument of torture for the death of Jesus, the son of God, for the sins of mankind. However, everyone looks to the Lord Jesus and their sins are forgiven. When the three little trees were young, did God listen to their prayers? What does the ending of the story give us?
