1 The Servant

"Son wake up" cried an old man. Who starts to shake the little boy awake.

"I need you to wake up now kid, stop faking it. You know the big day is today, the day our lord and god decends."

With that the little boy jerked out of bed and ran straight for his dresser.

The old man just chuckles and leaves.

The boys mind racing with millions of thoughts. 'I can't believe todays the big day, what am I going to wear.'

'No he won't care what I'm wearing I just need to get ready and go'

So the boy threw on some clothes and left his room. He noticed his father waiting for him with a smile.

The old man said "Remember today is a fasting day so we can't eat breakfast."

"I know let's get moving I want to be there early!" said the kid excitedly.

"Oh, I didn't realize you wanted to be there early since you didn't want to wake up" The man says while smiling.

"Oh come on dad let's go."

"Okay, okay we're going."

As the father and son rush out the door they hear clattering and footsteps from all around.

"Wow I haven't seen this many people since the pope was ordained" said the father.

"Come on let's go I want to be as close as I can." the boy said while pulling his father.

So the boy and his father started weaving through the crowd when eventually the boy suddenly got lost in the crowd.

"Wait! Son don't go too far!" The man yelled.

But today, the boy didn't listen. His heart was pounding. He was overwhelmed with the thought of meeting his true father. His creator the one he worships every night and thanks for his life. Every single thought of him while he read his bible. Nothing could come close to his excitment for today. The day the pope said he would decend and bless his children. Sadly our little boy doesn't truly know what will await for all of humanity once he does.

Once the boys drumming heart beat starts to calm down he realizes he's standing right in front of the pope who has a gentle smile on his face.

"Well who do we have here" the pope say.

"Umm… I'm sorry" the bow said while bowing his head.

The pope let out a gentle laugh and says "I'm not the one you should be bowing to today, so lift up your head as we await his holiness.

And if you don't mind little one, can you go back to your father he seems worried about you.

The kid looks up to see everyone in the crown smiling a looking right at him. Glancing around he sees his dad standing at the front with a relieved sigh. "You really had to make your dad run on his day off" he said while laughing. Receiving a laugh from all around. The boy runs to his father and says "sorry dad, I got a little carried away."

"It's okay, I was just making a joke. I can understand your excitement and look we got front row seats thanks to you" he said while smiling.

The child looks up and smiles.

As they were talking 2 hours went by and it's now time for the prophecized meeting. Everyone slowly got to there knees as they waited for their god to finally show himself.

Suddenly the sky split apart and they see a beautiful array of colors coming from the hole.

"ARISE MY CHILDREN, FOR I HAVE ARRIVED."

Everyone arose and started humming hymns. All of there hearts beating as one.

"AS MUCH AS I WANTED OUR MEETING TO BE AFTER THE START OF YOUR NEW LIFE. IT IS NOW NO LONGER AN OPTION. FOR SATAN HAS BROKE LOOSE FROM HIS CONFINES AND IT IS NOW TIME FOR A TRIAL OF THE GREATEST SEVERITY. SO FROM TODAY ON, I WILL GIVE THOSE WHO BELIEVED IN ME WITH ALL OF THEIR HEAR A BLESSING TO CARRY UNTIL DEATH, FOR THERE WILL BE A WAR! A WAR ALL OF HUMANITY WILL PARTICIPATE IN. TO FIGHT THE DEMONS HE WILL RELEASE. I CAME TODAY TO TELL YOU I HAVE NOT FORGOTTEN YOU BUT YOUR TRIALS AFTER TODAY ARE YOUR OWN. I LOVE ALL OF MY CHILDREN AND I WISH FOR HUMANITY TO RESIST THIS CALAMITY TOGETHER, BECAUSE EVEN WITHOUT ME SATAN HAS NO POWER OVER YOU FOR YOU HAVE COME FROM ME AND HAVE MY POWER INSIDE YOU."

As he finished speaking the beautiful array spread out and hit millions of people across the world. The child who had dedicated his entire life to him didn't receive such grace. As he watched his father he was extremely confused but not angry or jealous for he had forgone those feelings in his dedication to his lord. He was the servant of god and he would never question his reason. As everyone was coming back to reality from the light. They noticed their lord God had went back to heaven where he awaits for them after death. Everyone was crying and praising God thanking him for everything. As was the little child who didn't receive anything. He was praising louder than many others . Showing his thankfulness to his lord. "Thank you lord for blessing humanity and helping us through your trials, for we are weak without you. Amen"

As the day slowly dawned everyone was getting up from there spots and going home, but the boy stayed he prayed throughout the night. His father put a blanket over him and knelt next to him. For even though he has to work tomorrow. He knows what's truly important in his heart. It's what he has ingrained into his child from young. For as much as he wants to take credit for his child he knows who is really the father of this child who came from nowhere. The child he found in his room with bo signs of anyone being there. For this child is the Blessed Child of God.
