The Peace Messenger and the Guide
A Short Story in a poetic form
“Smile when your plans fail. Don’t forget, God has the master plan for your life.” —K A Simran
A Peace messenger met an angel one day The angel asked him if he wanted to do something else or wanted to keep everything the same way
The peace messenger said nothing but his eyes did The purpose of life felt deep He was still digging
His heart was spreading peace It had good intentions But it was trying to understand the spiritual connections
He was still seeking the answers To the questions he was carrying inside
What if guiding others would help you too What if you’re destined to be a guide Angel said in a low voice without him asking that took him by surprise
Think of yourself as a white dove The messenger of peace of the universe Who is turned into a star after a quest A shining guide in the darkness Guiding others
Don’t let doubt come into your mind Being a peace messenger is also an important job It helps you fight the good fight
Understand the way this universe works When your plans fail it means It is preparing you to serve your higher purpose
The peace messenger looked up He saw the starry sky It appeared to be full of lost souls That needed a guide
He spotted a bright star shining in the distance It winked at him, telling him He was ready to take its place
His heart whispered in silence Sometimes the guide might go in the wrong direction and needs a good guidance Sometimes the path needs the right guide People have got to give themselves a chance
The peace messenger turned to the angel His eyes had a new sparkle He said in a calm voice
It is an honor that the universe has considered me for this job I was spreading peace everywhere But in my heart I was just a wandering soul
I can’t thank you enough for coming here I know you are the universe’s messenger
There have been dark days But I never left my faith Surrounded by the universe It always felt like a moonlit night I never felt alone in life
The fire of hate could never touch me Because you were always there and the universe has been watching over me
I gladly accept your offer I happily step into the shoes of one of the guides of the universe I will follow the right path myself I will try my best to show it to others
My heart says I will learn and be blessed with answers along the journey But please tell the universe I may be working as a guide I still need it to guide me
