第6章 The Angel of Child守护天使

Your angel will defend you even if it means risking her life!

The Angel of Child

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.”

“哪怕冒着生命的危险,你的天使也会全力保护你!”

守护天使

从前,一个孩子快要出世了。因此一天他问到上帝:“听说您明天就送我到尘世去了,但我这么渺小和无助,我将怎么生活呢?”

上帝回答道:“在众多善良的人中,我为你挑选一位。她会在你身边守候着你,体贴入微地照顾你。”

But the child wasnt sure he really wanted to go. “But tell me, here in Heaven, I dont do anything else but sing and smile, thats enough for me to be happy.”

“Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you every day. And you will feel your angels love and be happy.”

“And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me,” the child continued, “if I dont 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.”

“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.”

孩子还是不确定自己是否真的想去。“但在天堂里,我除了唱歌和微笑外,不用做任何事。这就足以让我觉得幸福快乐了。”

“你的天使会每天为你唱歌,对你微笑。你会感受她的爱,并且因此而感到幸福。”

“我不懂人类的语言,当他们和我说话时,我怎么能听懂呢?”孩子又接着问道。

上帝在孩子的脑袋上轻拍了拍说:“你的天使会对你说你从未听过的,最美丽、最动听的话语。她会教你怎样说话。”

“当我想要和您说话时该做什么?”

上帝胸有成竹地回答:“你的天使会合拢你的双手,教你如何祈祷。”

“Ive heard that on earth there are bad men, who will protect me?”

“Your angel will defend you even if it means risking her life!”

“But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore,” the child continued warilywarily adv. 警惕地.

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 angels name.”

God touched the child on the shoulder and answered, “Your angels name is not hard to remember. You will simply call her Mommy.”

“听说人间有许多坏蛋,谁将保护我?”

“哪怕冒着生命的危险,你的天使也会全力保护你!”

“但是我会难过,因为我再也看不到您。”小孩继续认真地说道。

上帝对着孩子笑了。“你的天使会向你提起我,教你重返天堂之路。尽管如此,我也会一直陪在你的左右。”

此时,天堂一片宁静,可听到来自凡间的声音,小孩明白他得开始上路了。 他又轻声问了最后一个问题,“哦,上帝,如果我现在打算出发,请您告诉我天使的名字。”

上帝将手放到孩子的肩上,回答道:“你天使的名字不难记住, 你就叫她妈妈就可以了。”

上帝将世上最美好的评语给了妈妈,而妈妈也的确是最应当得到最优秀的评价的,因为她们是孩子最好的守护天使。妈妈是孩子成长永远的摇篮,一路伴着孩子,让孩子在人生的道路上,无论遇到什么困难和艰险,都勇敢向前。
