Faith

In a village which had not seen rain in years, crops were failing and people were dying. All the village elders decided to gather at the centre of the village and pray for rain. They asked every person to carry with them one object of faith to help in the prayer. When the crowd gathered, people had various objects in their hands – bible, pictures of God, prayer beads, etc. However one object stood out in the whole crowd – it was an umbrella that a little kid had carried. True symbol of faith in prayer. And it rained :)
