A Child's
Angel
Once upon a time there was a child ready to be
born. So one day he asked God, "They tell me you
are sending me to earth tomorrow but how am I
going to live there being so small and helpless?"
God replied, "Among the many angels, I chose one
for you. She will be waiting for you and will
take care of you.
" But the child wasn't sure he really wanted to
go. "But tell me, here in Heaven, I don't do
anything else but sing and smile, that's enough
for me to be happy."
God smiled. "Your angel will sing for you and
will also smile for you every day. And you will
feel your angel's love and be happy."
"And how am I going to be able to understand when
people talk to me," the child continued, "if I
don't know the language that men talk?"
God patted him on the head and said, "Your angel
will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words
you will ever hear, and with much patience and
care, your angel will teach you how to speak."
The child was sad. "And what am I going to do
when I want to talk to you?"
But God had an answer for that question too.
"Your angel will place your hands together and
will teach you how to pray."
The baby then turned to God and asked, "I've
heard that on earth there are bad men, who will
protect me?"
"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," the child continued warily.
God smiled on the young one. "Your angel will
always talk to you about me and will teach you
the way for you 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 already be heard. The
child knew he had to start on his journey very
soon. He asked God one more question, softly, "Oh
God, if I am about to leave now, please tell me
my angel's name?"
God touched the child on the shoulder just before
he departed and answered, "Your angel's name is
of no importance. You will simply call her
Mommy."
