[Proverbs 29:18] ORIENTAL WISDOM




ORIENTAL WISDOM

A CHINESE SAGE
WAS ASKED BY HIS STUDENT
WHAT DOES A MAN NEED TO BE HAPPY

HE THOUGHT
AND SAID
AN ARMY

NOT FOR WAR
BUT FOR PEACE

SUFFICIENT FOOD
TO ELIMINATE WANT

TRUST IN LEADERS
BOTH CIVIL AND RELIGIOUS
THAT THEY WILL DO THE RIGHT THING

THESE THREE
A MAN NEEDS

BUT WHAT IF YOU ONLY COULD HAVE TWO

THEN I’D OMIT THE ARMY
MAN WOULD HAVE TO LIVE IN PEACE
BY HIMSELF

BUT WHAT IF YOU ONLY COULD HAVE ONE

THEN I WOULD OMIT FOOD
MAN DOES NOT LIVE BY BREAD ALONE

WHY WOULD YOU KEEP FAITH

BECAUSE WITHOUT FAITH
THE PEOPLE PERISH
