When I Saw God!!!
It was a random Tuesday when I was walking home from school. The bus arrived late due- to traffic so, it was getting dark. I was scared as no one came to pick me up and it was around 5:00 PM. I had always been scared of being kidnapped.
Then it happened, I was walking alone, terrified of anyone I saw, two masked men came out of the van, when they noticed that no one was coming with me, and closed my mouth and eyes, tied my body with a rope and put me in the back of their van. There were no seats, so it was uncomfortable, but I was way too scared to notice that at the time. I was trying to keep strong, by holding back my tears or losing my life to those men. I overheard them discussing, what to do with me.
One of them said, “Let’s kill her, we can then sell her body for money”. While the other one said, “No, we will put her in our overheated room, where we will only feed her our leftovers and give her selvage water twice a day, and ask for 50,000 Rupees as ransom, and her family will have no choice but to give the money, to save their daughter.”
The first one said again “Great, idea pal, this is why I have you as my assistant, your ideas are amazing. Anyways we wouldn’t be able to earn money by selling a dead body.”
I was shocked by what I heard, I thought to myself “First they are planning to kill me, then they are going to ask for ransom from my family. I wish that God were here to save me, and punish these bad guys for their selfish acts.”
That was when I closed my eyes and saw, GOD, himself. I murmured to myself, “What, in holy matrimony, what is this, some kind of joke, and to in this situation.”
God told me, “My child, do not worry about them, you are an honest person, and you know it. Just keep faith in yourself, and I will take care of the rest, trust me, they are never going to do anything like this, neither to you nor anyone else.”
After saying these lines, he left, leaving me all confused about what just happened. But, as God said, I kept faith in myself and trusted him with the rest.
I saw on their map, that we were headed, we were headed to an abandoned factory. As we were thirty minutes away from our destination, something happened, and the van stopped. It turned out that the CNG had been finished.
They said, “We have no one push the van, and we are way too lazy and tired to do so. Shall we take that stupid girl out of the back and make her push it”.
As soon as they took me out of the van, I made a run for it, I remembered the way and ran and cried, thanking God for his help.
When I got home, I saw my mom crying and my dad all tensed. When they saw me, they asked “What happened sweetie, we were so worried about you. I called your bus teacher many times, but she said they had dropped you off a few hours ago.”
I told them “Something very bad happened, but it won’t happen again. It’s all in the past now. We should just enjoy the present and see what the future has in store for us. God is the best, he is the one who saved me from that mess.”
