A
baby asked God, “They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how am
I going to live there being so small & helpless?”
God
said, “Your angel will be waiting for you & will take care of you.”
The
child further inquired, “But tell me, here in Heaven I don’t have to do
anything but sing & smile to be happy.”
God
said, “Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you. And you will
feel angel’s love & be very happy.”
Again
the child asked, “And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk
to me if I don’t know the language?”
God
said, “Your angel will tell you the most beautiful & sweet words you will
ever hear and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to
speak.”
“And
how am I going to talk to you?”
God
said, “Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to
pray.”
“Who
will protect me?”
God
said, “Your angel will defend you even if it means risking its life.”
“But
I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore.”
God
said, “Your angel will always talk to you about ME and will teach you the way
to come back to ME, even though I will always be next to you.”
At
that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from Earth could be
heard & the child hurriedly asked, God, if I am to leave now, please tell
me my angel’s name.”
God
said, “You simply call her, “Mom”.
