When Leslie Weatherhead, the late English pastor, lived in India as a young man, he had a sturdy garden wall around his house. It was a foot thick, built of stone, and cemented over. A tiny seed, probably dropped by a bird, fell into a crack in the cement. When Dr. Weatherhead noticed a little plant growing out of the top of the wall, he cut it off and forgot about it. Dr. Weather-head went away to serve in the British Army. On his return, he found a healthy little bush had grown on the wall. He removed all he could of it. Later, a monsoon came and, during the storm, the wall collapsed.
