Joe was a farmer. His farmland was so poor that he hadn't had good harvests for years.
"If God lets me 1 the weather, then everything will get better," he complained. "I'm a farmer. I know what's the best for crops to grow than God does"
God heard his words. "Well, I give you one year. " he said, "You will be in control of all kinds of 2. Let's see what your crops will grow like. "
On hearing this, Joe was excited and 3 right away, "Sunny!" 4 the clouds went away.
He was pleased and shouted again, "5! " The sky was covered with dark clouds at once, then after a while, the field was filled with water.
In the following year, he changed the weather between sunny and rainy. Watching the seeds growing bigger and bigger and becoming crops, Joe felt really 6.
Then the harvest season came. He went to the field to get his crops 7 his heart suddenly went down when he found the crops even hadn't grown a grain（谷粒）. He was quite shocked and started to cry，Once again, God heard him.
"Do you want to know 8 you still don't get the good harvest you want?" God said. "You never asked for wind, rainstorm, snow and ice, or 9 that could make the air fresher and the roots stronger. Without strong roots, of course the crops won't grow any fruit. "
After he realized this, Joe asked God to 10 the power. It turned out that only through life's challenges would we harvest the fruit of life. It takes both ups and downs to get satisfactory results.
