ISAAC, THE SHOPKEEPERS SON
My name
is Isaac. I’m five years old, my papa owns one of the shops on Market Street.
We live aboves the shop. Papa got a man to make new tables and things for his
shop. Joseph – dats da guy – had a new baby. My mama took me to visit dem. My
mama told me I had to be very quiet as we visited ‘em. She said they had a new
baby and the new mama must be all tired. All babies need lots of sleep too.
When I
walked into da stable where they were staying there was lots of people. There
was da shepherds with all those sheep, Joshua, da innkeeper, and all his family
and a whole lot of other strange people!
The
strange people were mostly very big. Bigger than my daddy!! One of them was
very small, lots smaller than me even! I’ve never seen people like them before.
They all had the prettiest wings I’d ever see, even da little one! The little
one was sitting on the manger softly singing to the baby. The little one called
me over to look at the baby! The baby was so beautiful! He smiled at me when I
tickled His chin!
I tried
to show mama all the people in the stable, but she could not see ‘em. She kept
telling me to be quiet and to stop being silly and making up stories.
As the
boy got bigger we played together! He was real fun! He could talk to the
animals and they would do what He said. Even our big nasty cat liked Him. It
scratched everyone but Him! He always had a lot of those strange people around
Him. I like Nahem, the littlest of His friends the best. Nahem sang the
prettiest songs and told the funniest stories! Nahem would even play games with
us. I miss playing with Jesus and His friends.
My mama
still says that I need to stop telling make believe stories about seeing those
strange people. She does not believe I have seen them around Him. But I know I
saw ‘em! Nahem told me who “HE” is. Do you want to know who He is?
