The Story of the Three Trees

Every Sunday, the Naga Christian Fellowship (NCF) Delhi used to have its morning worship service in the basement of the Nagaland House at R.K. Puram in South Delhi. This Sunday morning service at the Nagaland House, R.K Puram was always a lively, interesting and blessed time for many. I also had wanted to be a regular part of this Sunday morning service. But since I used to reside in North Delhi, attending this worship service at the Nagaland House, R. K. Puram turned out to be not that easy and economical. If I went to R.K. Puram by bus from my flat in Mukherjee Nagar, North Delhi, I had to change buses at least three times at three different spots. This was time-consuming as well as tedious. Of course, auto-rickshaws were always available but a ride from Mukherjee Nagar to R.K. Puram would cost not less then Rs.120. The result of all these was that my attendance at the Nagaland House NCF Sunday morning service decreased from a few to nil. It was during this time that a lady friend from Nagaland introduced me to another Naga fellowship service being held in North Delhi itself. She informed me that a battalion of the Nagaland Police called the SNAP (Special Nagaland Armed Police) was stationed at the Kingsway Camp, North Delhi. This Naga police battalion had built their own church within their camp premises and on every Sunday they were having their worship service at 10:00 am. As I like attending church at least on Sunday mornings, I started attending this SNAP church at the Kingsway Camp, North Delhi. This church was being pastored by an Ao guy called Manen. And over the months I developed a good rapport not only with pastor Manen but also the other leaders and members of this church. On most of the Sunday morning services pastor Manen himself used to deliver the message/sermon. However, at times there were guest speakers invited from outside who delivered the sermons. It was on one such occasion that I heard ‘the story of the three trees’ from a missionary from South Korea. That particular Sunday morning, this South Korean missionary delivered a message on ‘Fulfillment of Our Dreams’. In the course of his message, the Korean missionary narrated the story of the three trees which went somewhat like this: The people who cut down the first tree took the tree home. Then they made a manger out of it so that their livestock could feed upon it. They placed the manger in a cow-shed to feed the cows.
