9. In a small village, there was an extremely heavy rain, and floods began to inundate the entire village. A priest was praying in the church, and soon the floodwater reached his knees as he knelt there. A lifeguard came to the church in a boat and said to the priest, “Father, come up quickly!” Otherwise, the flood will drown you! ”The priest said, “No!” I firmly believe that God will come to save me; you go and save others first. ” Before long, the floodwater had risen to the priest’s chest, forcing him to stand on the altar with difficulty. At that moment, another police officer arrived in a speedboat and said to the priest, “Father, come quickly, or you will really drown!” ”The priest said, “No, I will defend my church. I believe that God will surely come to save me.” You’d better go save others first. ” After some time, the flood had submerged the entire church, forcing the priest to hold on tightly to the cross at the top of the church. A helicopter slowly flew over, and after the pilot dropped down a rope ladder, he shouted, “Father, come up quickly! This is your last chance – we certainly don’t want to see you die drowned in the flood!” ! ”The priest still said firmly, “No, I will defend my church!” God will surely come to save me. You’d better go save others first. God will be with me! ! ” The floodwaters surged forward, and the stubborn priest was finally drowned... The priest went to heaven, and upon meeting God, he angrily demanded, \"Lord, I dedicated my entire life to serving You in reverence; why did You refuse to save me!\" ”God said, “Why would I refuse to save you?” The first time, I sent a boat to rescue you, but you refused; I thought you were worried about the danger to the boat ； The second time, I sent another speedboat; you’d better still not go ； The second time, I treated you with the honors due to a state guest and sent another helicopter to rescue you, but you still refused to accept it. So, I thought you were eager to return to my side so that you could spend time with me properly. ” Insight: In fact, too many obstacles in life are caused by excessive stubbornness and ignorant ignorance. When others offer help, remember that only if we are willing to extend our hands as well can they be of any use! ! ! ▼ 10. Five-year-old Hank went to the forest to work with his mom, dad, and brother. Suddenly it started to rain, but they only had one raincoat with them. Dad gave the raincoat to mom, mom gave it to my brother, and my brother gave it to Hank. Hank asked, “Why did Dad give it to Mom, Mom gave it to Brother, and Brother gave it to me?” ”Dad replied, “Because Dad is stronger than Mom, Mom is stronger than Brother, and Brother is stronger than you.” We all protect those who are weaker. Hank looked around, ran over, and unfolded his raincoat to shield a delicate little flower that was trembling in the wind and rain. Insight: A true strong person is not necessarily one who is very powerful or wealthy, but rather one who is helpful to others. Responsibility enables us to complete tasks, while love enables us to do them well.
