Nash & Nimi

NIMI: Why David? You seem dejected.

DAVID: You both have been promoted to the higher class.  But I have to remain in the same class. That makes me sad.

NASH : Don't worry David. Study well right from the beginning. You will surely pass.

DAVID: However much I study, nothing  sticks  to my memory.  How can I  pass them?

NASH: Leave everything in the hands of God.  He will bless you.  I am only reminded of the boy violinist.

NIMI : A little boy played the violin with great  skill.  His master decided to make him play in public even then.

NASH: He arranged to send him to a Music Competition.

NIMI: The boy  trembled in fear  to lay before the huge  audience.  His master encouraged him and  pushed him into  the auditorium.

NASH: Many grown ups participated in the competition. When his turn came , the little boy began playing the violin. 

NIMI: Wonder of Wonders! His performance made the audience  listen in breathless surprise.

NASH: The auditorium reverberated with applause of the entire audience!

NIMI: But the boy noticed no one's applause.  His eyes were riveted at someone on the balcony.

NASH: He looked at no one else.  He watched only his master whose eyes brimmed with tears of joy!

NIMI: He was appreciating his pupil's performance, encouraging him by nodding his head this way and that.  Every movement of his encouraged his pupil.

NASH: His eyes never strayed for a moment from his master.  He won the first prize in that competition.

NIMI:  When we live with our eyes set upon the Lord.  He will bless all our efforts.  He will change our defeats to success.

DAVID: Thank you both very much.  From now on, I shall study with a fresh resolve.  I shall look up only to the Lord.

NASH: I am so glad to hear that David.  God will grant us wisdom and success.
