Don't destroy in doubt whatever you have planted in faith

There is a small 5 letter word between where we are in life and life of our dreams. That word is “ DOUBT “

Let me explain myself more clearly with this short story of 3 farmers:-

In a small town, there were 3 farmers.

 First, 2 farmers worked right from sunrise to sunset. Choose the best seed to sow. Prepared the land with just the right amount of fertilizer, water, and other ingredients which are required for the seed to germinate. Once the seeds were sown, they would water it regularly, would remove the weeds, put in manure and other ingredients to create the right environment for the seed to germinate.

 Both came to the farm every single day to put in hard work so that they can reap the harvest of the seeds they have sown. Yet one farmer reaped bountiful of harvest while others did not. WHY?

Let’s first talk about the farmer who did not reap the harvest bountifully. That farmer lacked faith. This farmer after a week did not see the seeds germinate so he decided to pull out it out just to check if everything was okay. He destroyed the seeds and the germination process due to his doubt. His doubt came because he lacked knowledge on how much time it takes a seed to germinate and he lacked faith and belief.

The other farmer who reaped bountiful of harvest had faith that he will reap a great harvest. He had faith that if he sows enough seeds, he will get the desired harvest. Keep in mind, he did not know which seed will germinate and which will not but he knew for sure that if he sows enough seeds, he will have the desired harvest. Hence he did not destroy the seeds in doubt. With full faith, he sowed the seeds, he provided the right environment to the seeds, gave them the right amount of water, fertilizer and other ingredients. He also gave them time to germinate and kept the weeds away. He did all this because he had faith that in due time he will have the harvest. He was not able to see the seeds germinate below the ground, yet he had faith in the unseen. He backed up his faith with action and work. He backed up his faith with knowledge. He knew approximately how much time it takes for the seeds to turn into the harvest. He worked because he had faith that the harvest will show up. Also, he knew that there will be few seeds which will not germinate because some are just bad seeds or some will be eaten away by birds and rodents or some will be weak and cannot take harsh weather conditions or while sowing, some will just fall on the rock. So he sowed enough seeds to reap the harvest of his dreams. He did all this without any ill feelings towards the seeds which did not germinate.

 Also, faith only works when it is backed up with appropriate action and work.

 3rd Farmer had full faith that if he sows the seeds, provides the right environment he will reap the harvest but he did not do the work. He did not sow the seeds nor prepared the soil with the right ingredients and hence nothing happened.

 Don't destroy in doubt whatever you have planted in faith.
