God's Littlest Spirit
"You're a Special Little Spirit," the great Master said, As he gently caressed the curly brown hair of the Little Spirit's head.
"You need to go to Earth to spend some time, you know, A place I send most Spirits to help them learn to grow."
The Little Spirit, in sadness, slowly bowed her curly head, And from her eye a tear did steal and down her cheek it slid.
"Don't you fret now little one, I won't let you stay too long, I'll bring you back to help me here, you'll hardly know that you've been gone.
You're my choicest Little Spirit, you're the apple of my eye." And He wiped the tear and gently kissed His Little Spirit good-bye.
"I'm back," Little Spirit whispered, as she climbed onto her Master's knee, And the Master said, "I told you, you would not be long away from me."
And then, the Lord, He noticed still another tear welled in her eye. "Why are you so sad, Little Spirit, whatever should make you cry?"
"I'm glad I'm back," Little Spirit said, "but Master you must surely know, When your Angel came to get me, I didn't want to go.
I know you said you needed me and that I'd be gone the shortest while, But Lord, why couldn't I have had a little longer trial?"
The Master let Little Spirit slip down from off His knee, Then took the Little Spirits hand and said, "Come walk with me."
The Little Spirit and her Lord walked slowly hand in hand, As He tried his best to explain to her His great and marvelous plan.
"Now Lord, I don't mean to argue, I understand that you needed me home. But I left in such a hurry, Now everyone is so alone.
I didn't let my parents know how much I loved them so. I was much too small to tell them, Lord, how will they ever know?
They feel that they've been cheated, and in a way, so do I. Not getting to share any more than we did, how can I tell them why?"
I know your heart is heavy with this message you need to share. But you need not worry anymore, I'll watch over your loved ones there.
I'll send them loving comfort as a strong and helping hand. That will give them peace and ease their hearts, so they will understand.
"I'll tell them that you're pure, as pure as Heaven's Gold, And that I needed you very much to keep Heaven from getting cold."

~I'm An Angel Now~
One night I cried to Jesus As I sat beneath a tree. I looked into the open sky and hoped He'd answer me. I'm lost dear Lord I 've traveled far, But still I seem to roam. Please light the way and lead me Lord I need to get back home. I told Him of my burdens and of the sadness in my heart. That from His gracious love I'd never felt so far apart. Why did you take my child Lord? I cannot understand! No longer can I touch his face or hold his tiny hand. I'm angry Lord, I'm missing him I'm drowning in my sorrow. Please help to heal my yesterday and face each new tomorrow. It was then I heard his gentle voice and felt his presence near. How I wanted so to hold him as I cried another tear. He said "Mommy, I'm an angel now my spirit will be free. I'm an angel now in Heaven so please don't cry for me. I was chosen by our Lord above and now I'm in His care. When you need me, look inside your heart I promise to be there. No one can ever take away our bond with one another For I'll always be your precious child, as you will be my mother. So if you cannot find your way or the road to home seems far. Just look up to the Heavens and Ill be your guiding star!" He said "Mommy, I'm an angel now My spirit will be free. I'm an angel now in Heaven, no need to cry for me." |
