One day a little boy lay dying and no one could help him. But one man said to his father:
- There is only one hope. If you can get the venom of a cobra mixed with a few drops of rain falling into a human skull from the constellation Swati, then your son's life will be saved.
The father looked at the sky and found that the constellation Swati would be at its zenith the next day. And he began to pray, saying:
- Oh, Lord, make all these conditions possible; save my son's life.
With great confidence and desire in his heart, he set out the next day and began diligently searching for a human skull in secluded places. Finally, he found a skull lying under a tree and began to watch it, without ceasing to pray. Suddenly it began to rain, and a few drops of rain remained in the upside-down skull. The man said to himself:
“Now I have rainwater in my skull that fell directly under the constellation.”
And he continued to pray earnestly:
- Lord, make sure that everything else comes. After some time, he saw a frog not far from the skull. Suddenly a cobra jumped out of the grass and wanted to grab the frog, but at that moment the frog jumped over the skull, and droplets of the cobra’s venom fell into the water. Overwhelmed by gratitude, the loving father exclaimed:
“Lord, by Your grace everything impossible has become possible.” Now I know that my son's life will be saved.
