His father takes him into the forest,blindfolds him and leaves him alone.he is required to sit on a stump the whole night and not remove the blindfolds until the rays of the morning sun shines through it. He cannot cry out for help to anyone.once he survives the night he is a MAN.he cannot tell the other boys of his experience because each lad must come into manhood on his own.the boy is naturally terrified. He can hear all kinds of noises. Wild beast must surely be all around him. Maybe even some human might do him harm. The wind blew the grass and Earth, and shook his stump, but he sat stoically, never removing the blindfold. It would be the only way he would become a man! Finally after a horrific night, the sun appeared and he removed his blindfold. It was then he discovered his father sitting on the stump next to him. He had been at watch the entire night.protecting his son from harm. We, too, are never alone. Even when we dont know it, God is watching over us, sitting on the stump beside us. When trouble comes, all we have to do is reach out to him... Moral of the story: just because you cant see God doesnt mean he is not there. For we walk by Faith, not by Sight. I pray God visits you at the point of your need #Amen!!!
