THE ARK
"Oh, I've got to hurry!" Little Lily fervently collected all kinds of her favorite things.
The wind was whispering louder and louder and the clouds looked like they were ready to pour out an ocean
"Come little butterflies you too, you have to come with me!"
"Where to Little Lily? Where are we going to?"
"To the little ark I build.
Come hurry, it's starting to rain.
They hurried and came to the ark and Lily closed the gate.
"Lily is this the ark? This looks more like a garden."
"Oh I do hope you're not disappointed, I am too little to build you a ship, so I thought this would do.
Here we are safe from floods, quakes and wars. It's my secret place made just for you all."
"Yes little Lily this will do, we will be safe with you."
The flowers, birds, all her favorite things and little friends felt warm and comforted by little Lily.
They made wonderful music together as outside started to look very grim.
Lily made them some chocolate and they drank and ate the cookies she had freshly baked that morning.
"We can celebrate Christmas here also, I made a special Christmas room for us."
Happily she climbed on a little chair to place an angel ornament.
Suddenly there was a cry from outside the Christmas room.
"Little Lily, little Lily, water floods the ark!"
They hurried to the garden and screamed.
"Oh no, we are being flooded. How can this be!"
"Oh, I don't know, we were far from all disasters here in my special made ark.
Don't be afraid, let us pray and ask Father God to save us."
They all started to pray and little Lily looked up to the sky to see the heart of Father God.
"Father God, my little ark isn't able to save us from the flood, will you help us please."
A bright light shone through the clouds and heaven opened as Father God appeared.
Lily's little heart leaped with joy as she saw her beloved Father God.
"Don't be afraid, Lily, I've been with you all the time and think you have made a wonderful little ark.
But I knew your ark would not save from the floods so I made you a safer one.
It's for all who wish to survive the floods, quakes and even wars.
Just simply whisper my name with your heart and you will be in my ark forever and even in the midst of the rising waters and battles around you, you will be safe."
Lily and her little friends immediately closed their eyes and whispered His name with their little hearts.
Immediately their hearts transcended to the ark of God where all was calm and serene.
Father God hugged them all and gave them angel cookies and fresh water to celebrate an everlasting Christmas within the special rooms of their little hearts.
Blessings and love in Christ,
Monique
