The Great Catching Away part ten

"Jesus is coming, Jesus is coming, He's coming back again today." Grace kept on her rhythmic jump roping and singing her little ditty. She used to sing these words instead, "Jesus is coming, Jesus is coming back again soon someday." Grace dropped her favorite jump rope and started loudly shouting and waving her childish tiny arms. "I see Jesus in the clouds coming after me!" Every body called her, "That poor deranged deluded poor unfortunate crazy little girl. Where were her parents? Maybe she was adapted?" Was what all of the adults around her were saying in the play ground. Her peers cut it short but sweet and called her, "Grace is a crazy little girl! Everybody knows that Jesus doesn't exist today anymore! Just maybe he never even existed in the first place!" Suddenly there was a loud sonic boom and the heavens opened up like unto an open window and the sign of the Son of Man appeared unto Grace. Grace, left behind her checkered red dress, her favorite red hat and her also her favorite jump rope she received on her last birthday from her folks. She left behind her red shoes and everything she wore on earth during the great catching away aka the rapture! "Someday, Roger, I ain't gonna need this here rickety ole wheel chair! Someday, Roger, I ain't gonna be blind anymore! Come here, Roger and sit by me that's a good boy, that's a good dogie." Chanted Regret. "Regret! You blind silly ole' fool, your dogie Roger has been dead for at least two whole years now, get over it and get on with your life your worthless blind ole crazy ole' foolish man child!" admonished his nurse attendant, Rita. "Lovely Rita meter maid, my dogie Roger is more alive to me right about now than even you are! Someday I am gonna be able to walk and someday I am gonna be able to see! Someday I gonna go up in the greatest escape from this ole doomed late great planet earth by going up to heaven to meet with Jesus Christ and He's coming back to take both Roger and me outta here! And that's the gospel truth! God himself said it and I believe it and that ends it period end of story!" Laughed Regret. "There ain't no Jesus and there ain't no God and there ain't no Holy Ghost! And there ain't no more dead dogie Roger anymore, Regret you crazy ole man!" laughed Rita. The very next instance, both Regret and his beloved pet Roger, were raptured! And Rita, his hardened atheistic nurse was left behind with her mouth wide opened. Roxanne Lea Dubarry Roxy Lea 1954 Nov. 29, 2023
