The Innocence Of Christmas

The Innocence Of Christmas  
by Paul McCann

The traveller and the storyteller are  not and  never will be the kind of people you meet every day .
Their lives life have been spent travelling between other dimensions and talking to those who have lived in the past and future guided by their spiritual guides  . They are gifted and protected in all they have to do and go through  . Each place and each dimension from the beginning of time to the spaces beyond time is whete you will find them in this  world .
This event I’d like to mention is about 
the journey to the first Christmas along the heavenly pathway to the coast of dreams and over the road at Pilgrims Hill where they travelled 
and heard the sound of a child crying . The sound of the crying  started to vibrate and the ground was shaking and the sky started to  glow and at that moment a pillar of light descended from the sky and landed right in front of him on the road .
A doorway appeared at the foot of the pillar of light and a tall being emerged from the light . He wore a golden robe that shone like the sun and on his head was a Crown and in his hand a shepherd’s crook .

A scent of roses wafted in the evening breeze and peace fell down all around almost as if the world had come to an end . Then in the silence the visitor introduced himself

“ You must be the traveller ,they spoke of . I am one of the Magi ,
King of a past and a shepherd of lost  time .  Let me bring you to another place and another time .“

His voice was soft and in the whisper his message penetrated the depth of the storyteller’s soul .

“I am honoured by your presence Magi King and shepherd of lost time  . Have you heard a child crying ?”

The King smiled and said 
“ Yes snd that is whete we must go now for the child awaits .“

A lightvsppwated befoe them and they walked through a  doorway there that closed behind them . A dogtvvoive spoke a narrative the words told a story of a time in infinite  apace . It was as if time stood still and in a brief moment the voice saod ,
“ I am the storyteller of infinite time who has seen it all . A future and a past and everything is how it should be . “

At that moment the storyteller appeared before them and led them
from the light into a desert in the  dark of night . Above in the sky was oner star shinning bright . Along the way the met two other Kings .
The storyteller brought them to a place where children played and then he said .
“Look at how happy they are . Thats is a vision of innocence .“

As he brought them through the desert they were met by chidren who were crying “
Tbe storyteller ssid ,

“That is a vision of hopelessness .
They are lost children who cannot theircway home way “ 

Further into the desert the watched some children fighting and the storyteller ssid,

“ Look at how they can’t get along and how they hate eachother . 
That is a vision of anger.“ 

In the distance thru heard a baby crying and the storytrller said ‘

“That is the sound of the child who hss come to restore innocence  and bring love and peace to  all the childten of thevworkd “

 He brought them to a stable there  where  some shepherds stood around   a little baby . There was a man and woman there as well and a brilliant light shone around them . 
One by one each of them approached and looked at  the child . 

“This is the very first Christmas and a gift has been given to all the world .
Because now innocence has come to make the future a better place “

The child sat up andvspone “
Forever young we will be in a place where time will not end  . We must all become innocent again like children if we want to  live forever in that place for out  home is there”

The child in the crib was lifted into the air by creatures with wings who begsn to sing .

The man  and woman , the storyteller , the traveller , the shepherds and kings were entranced by the song  .

“Alleluia , born is the King of 
Eternal love , Alleluia , born is the King of Eternal Joy , Alleluia born is the King of Eternal peace , Alleluia ,  Alleluia we will live forever , Alleluia.”

At that moment the  mother of the Child began to sing a song , a lullaby and the child was brought and oka ed in her arms as she softly sang .

“All  come to the child, for the King  has come , All come to be a child  for the King is here , All come to the child,  for the world will become , 
one with his peace and love and one in his Jimgdom to come . Oh come , to the King , for now we have hope , and innocence will return for everyone .
Sing , sing , sing to the King who has cone to the world , a new day has come , This is Christmas , a new  day has come ,  this is the day when  Christmas has come .“   

Suddenly everyone began singing , The Magi Kings and the traveller  , 
the  shepherds the storyteller , they all joined in singing and the morning sun rose in the sky and the stable was surrounded by children who danced and  played anc innocence stayed until the day was  done .Then 
 Magi Kings , the shepherds and the storyteller and  the traveller said , goodbye .

The traveller walked across a bridge into the pillar of light and disappeared far beyond through to a future dimension .
The Magi King and shepherds went back to  valleys  and hills and  the storyteller made his way into towns and villages to spread the news of Christmas to everyine everywhers snd in his heart and in his mind,  the storyteller always heard the voice of an innocent child whisper to him  .

“My gift for you is eternal life “

The End
