There was once a man who had the perfect knowledge of God. He knew all there was to know about God, and when he became of age, he decided to preach it to the people. He went village to village, where large crowds would gather to hear him. Many people far and wide came to see him preach, and the cowds grew larger and larger everytime. One night he felt his soul was in pain, and asked his soul why he felt this way. His soul answered " You have been giving away the perfect knowledge of God which was given to us, and we have very little left." This troubled the man, and he decided not to preach anymore. The next morning a large crowd gathered to hear him once more, but he refused. They crowd was angered, and did some cruel things to him. They spat on him, cursed him, and chased him. They chased him all the way to City of the Seven Deadly Sins.They left him their, in that desert. He laid in the sand, so sad and grieved, holding tight to the last bit of knowledge he had left. On the third day, he begged the thief not to go in. The thief laughed at him and said " What could you give me that these treasures can't ?" The man of God gave the thief the last bit of knowledge he had. The thief broke down and repented, and ran away from the site of the man of God. The man of God was completly empty, and felt this incredible pain, he felt so alone. He cried himself to sleep. When he woke up, he saw these beautiful sandals of silver, and a voice spoke " You once had the perfect knowledge of God, now you have the perfect love of God" and caried him away...

The story is mostly about doing what God put you here to do, and no matter the hardships, God is there in the end. ------------------ |
