Transcript

In a heartfelt conversation,

The Master addressed a devoted disciple who constantly sought solace in prayer.

With gentle yet thought-provoking words,

The Master asked,

When will you cease leaning on God and begin to stand firmly on your own two feet?

The disciple was taken aback,

His faith momentarily shaken.

But Master,

He protested,

Isn't it you who taught us to perceive God as a loving father?

The Master replied,

Indeed,

My dear disciple,

A father is not someone you lean on indefinitely,

But rather someone who guides you to overcome the very need to lean.
