A LESSON FROM THE BAMBOO TREE


You take a little seed, plant it, water it, and fertilise it for a whole year, and nothing happens

The second year you water it and fertilise it, and nothing happens

The third year you water it and fertilise it, and nothing happens. How discouraging this becomes!

The fourth year you water it and fertilize it and nothing happens. This is very frustrating.

The fifth year you continue to water and fertilise the seed and then...take note.

Sometimes during the fifth year, the Chinese bamboo tree sprouts and grows NINETY FEET IN SIX WEEKS!


Well, life is much akin to the growing process of the Chinese bamboo tree. It is often discouraging. We seemingly do things right but nothing happens.

But for those who do things right and are not discouraged and are persistent, things will happen. Finally we begin to receive the rewards. Never be discouraged by bad situations around but let the joy of the Lord be your strength and assurance!


Those who give up never gets up, but those who gets up never gives up!


Stay tune for more, dear viewers and God bless!
