Chapter 7
Now on this particular day in Heaven, Little Lawrence was sitting in his special spot at the bottom of the steps of the throne of God. Hopeful as always to get to see his hero, Michael, the archangel. Now Little Lawrence had not seen Michael, the archangel, past by as yet. Little Lawrence decided that he must be on some important mission for God. So the little angel curled up in his wings and went to sleep. Sleep is still needed at times in Heaven especially when one is a small angel. After what could of been a few minutes in earth time or a century in earth time for all the little angel knew, he felt someone touch him ever so softly. Then he heard someone say his name, Little Lawrence, Little Lawrence, wake up, God wants me to talk to you! This little angel slowly moved one wing from the over the other, and with rubbing his eyes to his amazement there, there was his hero right in front of him! Little Lawrence rubbed his eyes even harder as he just knew he was seeing things or dreaming. Oh, Oh,my goodness, this can't be happening. Michael, the archangel, is talking to me. My hero, is bending over on one of those majestic knees to talk tome. I must be dreaming, I must be in heaven thought the little angel and than he remember that he was already in heaven! Little Lawrence jumped to his feet with such a stir that the clouds ended up making a sound like in a thunder storm with the mighty sound of lighten flashing all over the place. Michael, the archangel started laughing at this little angel and told him to calm down. That he did not mean to scare him. Little Lawrence kept thinking this can not be true. Yes in Heaven angels and people can still sleep and dream. As this little angel moved to stand up he almost fell over his wings. Such a smile came over the face of Michael, the archangel, as he looked upon this little angel that he knew had looked up to him for such a long time. He was also aware of the dreams that this little angel had of becoming a messenger for God. How little did this little one realize that now he would get his chance. Would this little angel be up to the task at hand?
"Little Lawrence, God has sent me to talk to you;" Michael advised this little angel. He has a message that He wants you to take to Earth to a little girl named Mary. Little Lawrence's eyes got so wide upon hearing the thoughts that Michael was telling him. Remember, in Heaven people and angels communicate by thoughts. The little angel would have to go to the Earth to deliver this message. Little Lawrence had never been to earth but he heard talk about it and how nice it can be at times. He had also heard at times it is not such a nice place and now he was going to get to make that decision for himself. He was going to get to go to Earth as a messenger for God! Of all the angels in Heaven, God had picked Little Lawrence for this very important job.
Michael, the archangel, told Little Lawrence all about Mary, Mommy, Daddy , Butter, and Smitty. Michael told Little Lawrence that this family especially Mary, needed the message of God's love that Little Lawrence was entrusted to bring to her. This little angel wonder how he would do such a huge task, how would he get to earth, and would he be successful in what was expected of him? Michael, knowing the thoughts that this little angel had running through his mind told him to fear not he will do well.
Michael went on to explain to Little Lawrence, "You will have to be very patient with Mary, for she is very angry right now. It will take you awhile to earn her trust, and get her to open up to the message that you will be bring to her." "But fear not, I will not be far from you. I will help you on this mission anytime you need my help just say my name," "When do I leave asked the little angel, and with the blink of an eye, Little Lawrence found himself sitting on a tree branch of a huge oak tree in Mary's backyard near the creek. Listening to the sobs of Mary as she said it's my fault Smitty, I did not keep my promise to Butter or Mommy and Daddy. It's all my fault!
