The Discovery
It was a discovery, no doubt. But it wasn't what she expected. As Carmen picked it up to examine it and read it she had no idea what she had found. There it was laying in the side yard, a simple little book of what looked like some stories. But as she read this dirty, moldy book she had found a new world began to open up. She began to see things in a different manner. She began to act differently. Carmen really still couldn't make out what kind of small book this was that she found. It seemed to be a mixture of history, story, poem and science fiction. The more she read this book the more the world opened before her eyes. The more she read the more this feeling deep inside began to grow. She couldn't help but to run to her friends and family and relate the words from this book to all of their lives each day.
It was a discovery, no doubt. A discovery that would lead Carmen into a great new kingdom. A small 2 inch by 3 inch book she found in the dirt of the side yard. It's like it dropped from heaven.
Prayer
Lord, open to each one of us your kingdom that we may begin to understand how you came to this earth to save. Open to each one of us your kingdom that we may serve you and those you give to us in the love shown to us through Jesus Christ... today... tomorrow... and forever. --- Amen
