Push that rock!

There's a story of a little boy, and God asked him to push a big rock. So in his obedience, he tried his best to push that rock. However, after some time, the rock didn't budge at all. He got discouraged, and started complaining. But God said, "I asked you to push the rock, but I didn't ask you to move it."

Sometimes we try so hard, and try to get things done quickly. But no matter how hard we try, there's always something unfinished. And we start to worry. But God wants us to rely on Him instead! Just do your best, and let God handle the rest.

You may be wondering, what a silly analogy! Nothing happens to the rock, so it's useless. It's true, but along the way, the boy gained some muscles and a little bit of wisdom :)
