~A Baby Asked God~

A baby 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?"
"Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of
you."
The child further inquired, "But tell me, here in heaven I don't
have to do anything but sing and smile to be happy."
God said, "Your
angel will sing for you and will also smile for you. And you will feel your
angel's love and be very happy."
Again the child asked, "And how am I
going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don't know the
language?"
God 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?"
God said, "Your angel will place your hands together and will
teach you how to pray."
"Who will protect me?"
God said, "Your
angel will defend you even if it means risking it's life."
"But I will
always be sad because I will not see you anymore."
God said, "Your angel
will always talk to you about Me and will teach you the way 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 be heard and the child hurriedly
asked, "God, if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel's name."
"You
will simply call her, 'Mom.'"
