He is a man struggling for life in the middle of the sea. Everyone died in the shipwreck,but he was still alive by grace of God.Pushed by waves finally he reached a no man island. Every day he was eagerly looking for anyone to come and rescue him. Also he sincerely prayed for it. Finally he got tired and built a hut for him to stay.It gives some comfort to him.One day he went away to gather food for him.. On his return to the hut,to his shock,he found the hut was completely burnt by fire. He was crying to God “ Why did this happen to me?”. He got angry against God.
Next morning he sees a ship is coming closer to that island. That ship came to rescue him. He asked the captain of that ship “ How do you know that I am on this island?”. “Since you put up fire and showed the sign of rescue I came here”,said the captain. Once he heard this,he thought God only did it to save him and felt very happy.
