The Leper
It all
started about fifteen years ago. I
woke up with a dull ache in my joints. I
didn't think a lot of it at the time. I had been working pretty hard the past few
days and I thought I was just stiff and sore from overexertion. But the soreness didn't go away.
The
Press Conference
There were ten chairs in the celestial pressroom. They were
grouped into two rows of five. The podium was front and center. Angels
slowly began to arrive and fill the chairs. As they visited with one another,
they realized no one knew the reason they had been called there. Several
minutes later the side door to the pressroom opened and in walked the
Word. His face was serious and his gait deliberate. Wasting no time, he
stepped up to the podium and began to speak as if he had somewhere else
to be.
The
Test
It had been
a long, hard night for Abraham. His restlessness wouldn't let him sleep,
and he couldn't tell anyone else about his problem. All he could do was
stare at the ceiling, his eyes wide open.
