A king went hunting with his minister. Spotting a deer in the forest, he had just strung his arrow when a boar emerged from the forest, pushed him, and ran away. The unexpected blow cut his finger. Blood began to flow, leaving him distraught. Looking at the minister, he said, "King! Whatever God does, He does for good." The king, already in pain, was filled with anger upon hearing his minister's words. He ordered him to leave him immediately and take another path. The minister gladly accepted the order and set off in a different direction. Just as the king had progressed, he was surrounded by cannibals. They seized him and took him to their leader. Preparations were underway to sacrifice the king when his priest, seeing his severed finger, said, "This man is a mangled figure; his sacrifice cannot be accepted." When the king was revived, he immediately remembered his minister. He thought, "The minister was right. Whatever God does, He does for good. I shouldn't have abandoned Him." As he was moving forward thinking this, he saw the minister singing hymns on the river bank. The king lovingly embraced the minister and narrated the entire incident to him. Thereafter, the king asked him, "My finger was cut; God has blessed me with this, but I insulted you and drove you away; what good did that do you?" The minister smiled and said, "King, if you had not sent me on a different path and I had been with you, the cannibals would not have sacrificed you because of your disability, but I was sure to be sacrificed. Therefore, whatever God does is good, but we do not understand it immediately."
