Short Story: John dreams of the boy, Jesus (The Christ)

Tweet

One night, not that long ago now, John was dreaming that he was walking along a gravel, grassy forest track, with a few scattered trees spread around. John came to a large tree, and he climbed up into it, and then he sat on a branch, and noticing some squirrels down on the ground, John picked off some nuts, and he threw them down to them, and they started nibbling on them then. Some squirrels run off with the nuts, in their mouth though, and John noticed that they seemed to disappear from his sight then. Curious by this, John climbed down from the tree, and he walked over to the spot, where the squirrels had been last seen by him. There were some bramble like thorny bushes there, which he pushed aside a bit, with a long tree branch, that he had found lying on the ground close-by. Then, John noticed a hole in the rock face there, which he put his hand into, and then feeling something in there, John pulled it out, and he found that it was an old leather covered like booklet or satchet, with loose thickly cut, but small, less than A4 sized, papyrus pages, placed on top of each other, with the rough brown leather cover covering around them all, as protection. There must have been around ten pages there, all in all. John saw that on the first page, it said simply, "Jesus" Then John read an entry further down that said. "Today my mother told me that I am the son of God, and that one day, I will tell that to the World." It seemed that this was written by the boy Jesus, when he was perhaps 13 or 14 years of age. Perhaps, Jesus didn't fully know or understand, when he was still a boy, the fullness of his coming role as the son of God yet then, and that much later, his body would lay stone dead, (for a while) in another cave. Like all humans, Jesus was born with an all knowing heart, connected to an all knowing God, and yet his consciousness had to be developed too, to match this. With God's help, this was done, but in the beginning stages as a boy, yes, Jesus’s consciousness was not fully aware of what was in his superconsciousness either, that is that he was actually God's son here to complete a mission here for God. That's what John concluded from his dream. Photo Credit: The photo used here was freely sourced from the free media site: pixabay.com. What is hidden deep in your own cave??
