Test Story: The Lantern & the Wind

Intro

Every Friday we share a tiny parable that nudges us toward better choices. Today’s is about staying steady when life blows hard.

The Story

A lantern hung on a small porch. Night after night, the wind tried to snuff it out—sometimes a whisper, sometimes a howl. The lantern didn’t argue or boast. It simply kept the flame guarded and the glass clean. Travelers passing by found their way because one small light refused to quit.

Moral

Hold your light. You don’t need to shout just stay bright

Reflect

• When was the last time you stayed calm instead of reacting?
• What helps you “guard the flame” (sleep, prayer, journaling, a call to a friend)?
