Let me tell you the story... of three trees.

They dreamed about what they wanted to become when they grew up.

The first little tree looked up at the sky.

It was a sky filled with stars, shining like diamonds.

"I will be the most beautiful treasure box in the world!"

The second little tree looked at the river flowing into the sea.

"I want to be a great, big ship," he said.

I want to sail the seas and carry powerful kings.

"I will be the greatest ship in the world!"

The third little tree looked at all the people in town.

They were working very hard and they were very busy.

they will stop to rest, and raise their eyes to heaven and think of God.

I want to be the tallest tree in the whole world!"

the little trees grew and became big trees.

One day, three woodcutters climbed the mountain.

The first tree was brought to a carpenter's shop.

He became a feed box for hungry farm animals.

The second tree was brought to a shipyard.

But, he did not become a great ship for kings.

The third tree was left aside, forgotten.

The three trees almost forgot their dreams.

One night, a great light shone on the first tree.

A young woman placed her newborn baby in the feed box.

he was holding the greatest treasure in the world.

a man and his friends got on the small fishing boat.

he was carrying the King of heaven and earth.

a group of soldiers nailed a man's hands on the third tree.

The man was raised up on the cross to die.

Three days later, the man came back to life!

Then, the third tree knew, that man was the Son of God.

The three little trees did not become what they wanted to be.

to hold the greatest treasure we could ever hope for.

to carry the King of heaven and earth, who can calm all our storms.

Each of them met Jesus and became a part of God's plan

we can come close to God, to know and trust Him too.
