There was Chinese peasant, who had an old horse, which he used to plough his field. One day his horse ran away to the jungle.

His friends felt sorry for him, that the poor man did not have the money to another horse and came to express their sympathy.

But the peasant replied, well, the God know what he is doing. Please don’t feel sorry for me. His friends thought what a strange man he was.

Couple of days later his old horse came back and brought 2 young horses with him. He kept the 3 horses in his stable and his surprised friends said, well lucky man; he has got 2 young horses free. He again replied, God knows what is what.

A week later, his son was training one of the young horses, fell down and broke his leg. His friends again commented that free horses brought bad luck his house. Hi answer was the same; God only knows what is what.

His friends thought there no point of saying anything to this peasant.
It was a time in China when there was war going on and army couldn’t find enough recruits. Army would come to the villages and would take all the young men to fight in the war.
Couple of weeks later, sure the army came to this village too, took all the young men, except farmer’s son who had broken leg.

Since I heard this story I realize that when we say why God did this to me. We are impatient. He know what he is doing.
