Picking Up The Pieces

The Lord God Almighty told us all that we were to prepare for the coming of our Messiah. We Muslims heard his voice, and began to prepare. We did not know who the Messiah would be. We knew only that he had promised us a Messiah. He had made the same promise to the Jews, and to Christians, but we all were expecting a different person to appear to us. It never occurred to us that we all could share the same Messiah.

I work at a store in midtown Manhattan in New York City, and a woman walked in one day, ablaze with light. I had just recently had my spiritual eyes opened wide, and had begun to learn how to read the aura. I tried to read hers, and saw none of the things they said I would see in American women, nor any of the things they said I would see in Christian women. I saw only purity, through and through.

I smiled at her one day, hoping to understand why she had so much light, and why she was so pure. She told me about being sealed with God's indwelling Holy Spirit. I asked her if she was a Christian, or a Muslim. She was Christian, but believed that her Messiah was a Messiah for everyone. I listened and did exactly as she told me to do. I saw myself in the ether as I too became emblazoned in a glowing white light. We all had begun to be baptized in water in preparation for our coming Messiah, so I was well prepared to be filled with God's Spirit.

Since that day, my life has never been the same. I wondered how we would pick up the pieces of our lives when the realization hit that our promised Messiah was Jesus Of Nazareth, that we had been given no special treatment. As it turns out, it is the Christians who must pick up the pieces of their lives, because it is they who now have been locked out of the kingdom, having failed to heed the warnings to prepare, and having failed to hear the voice of God calling to them in the wilderness of their lives, and imploring them to come to him and be healed, genuinely healed and restored.
