drawing...

alone I sat in that corner of the forge...
it was not a clean place but at least it was a place were I can rest
I always dreamt of being something important...
An armor or a shield for the soldiers....or even a sword for the king!!!
Maybe a box to keep the jewellary....
I was waiting for the day when that old man in the forge would shape me as a sword and give me to a famous king or even a famous roman commander....


It was that time of the year where many people came to buy stuff like dishes and cups from the forge...It was the feast of the Passover.
It was that day when a young man came and asked for some cups as he was preparing for the passover meal.... but as it seems he didn't have much money...
The old man in the forge kept searching until he saw me in the corner ...he then took me and told the young man to come after some time so that he could finish...
The old man took me ....put me in the furnace.....I was happy beacause I knew I was going to be a sword...the furnace hurts but I shall be a sword in the end...
But.....
The old man took me out...shaped me as a little cup....
He then gave me to the young man....
I was disappointed and didn't want to spend ma life as a silly cup!!!



It was that night....there was a man...a man not like any other man I saw before..
HIS face was shining with love and peace....
HIS tender voice was a musical symphony of love....
HE was sitting with others around him....They were eating
Suddenly....
HE took bread...gave thanks and broke it and gave it to his disciples saying "Take and eat ; this is my body."
Then HE took me...
HE was holding me so tenderly and softly....
HE put his lips on me and tasted....then HE offered me to the rest saying "Drink from it , all of you. This is my blood..."


I became his blood ....
I became his son...
HE created me from nohting and made me his son....


Here I am to worship..Here I am to bow down.. Here I am to say that you're my God
YOU're all together lovely...all together worthy...........
