Alfred was very
sad. His friend
and classmate
Chad had died
and he had been
inconsolable
since then.
He did not have
the disposition
to go to school
anymore, nor go
for a walk,
cycling,
anything,
because he had
always done
those things
with his friend
Chad, who now
would no longer
be there with
him to cheer up
his days.
Very sad, Alfred
would go to
school, but
could not find
pleasure anymore
in the
activities he
once did with
Chad. Until one
day Jane, his
classmate,
seeing him so
upset, consoled
him by saying:
 |
- Alfred, there
is no need to be
so sad like that!
Chad is not dead,
he has just
changed place!
- How so? Who
told you
this?... - he
asked,
surprised.
- It's true,
Alfred! Death
does not exist.
We are immortal!
The only thing
that changes is
the place: now
we are here,
then in the
spirit world.
- How do you
know? Who told
you that, Jane?
- the boy wanted
to know, amazed.
She said she was
from a Spiritist
family and her
parents
explained to her
about death,
which is only of
the |
|
physical
body. The Spirit
is immortal and
will go to our
True Life, to
learn always! |
- You mean no
one dies?!... -
Alfred asked,
amazed at this
news.
- That's right!
- Jane! I may
see my friend
Chad again?
- Of Course!
Alfred thanked
Jane and
returned home in
a better mood.
As he arrived,
he asked his
parents if they
knew that death
does not exist.
They exchanged a
look, and the
mother said:
- What are you
talking about,
dear?
- It was Jane
who told me, Mom.
And he explained
to his parents
what he had
heard from his
classmate, but
his father
responded:
- Son, do not
believe in these
things! This is
all nonsense.
But I'll find
out more about
it and then we
will talk, okay?
Alfred agreed.
However, in his
heart, he could
feel that his
friend Chad
could not have
ceased to exist.
Some time later,
Alfred was
worriedly
studying for a
test which the
subject he did
not really
understand well,
when he "felt"
someone by his
side. He looked
around and saw
Chad there,
close and
smiling. He put
a hand on his
shoulder and
said:
|
- Alfred, do not
worry! You will
do great on the
test. If you
study the
subject well, I
promise to help
you!
Seeing his
friend, who was
now in the
spiritual world,
the way he was
before, with an
outfit that he
knew well, and
speaking to him,
Alfred was
moved.
- Chad, is that
really you?!...
- Of Course! Do
you doubt it?
|
 |
- No! I feel
it's you and
that you still
are my friend,
as always!
- Yes. The death
of the body does
not change
anyone; we
remain the same,
only we learn
more! I'm living
with my
grandmother Rosa
and I am happy.
Give my parents
a hug for me.
They believe I
have died and
that hinders our
relationship.
Chad said
goodbye and
Alfred continued
studying. The
next day, at the
time of test,
Alfred was
confident. But
then he could
not remember the
answer to one of
the questions.
At that moment,
he saw Chad, who
told him:
- Remember the
last page which
has this text?
Well at the end
is the answer
you need. Search
your memory! And
also, do not
forget what I
asked you, OK?
Alfred closed
his eyes and, in
his mind, opened
the book on that
page and
remembered:
- I got it! - he
cried out
loudly,
startling his
classmates.
The teacher made
a sign of
silence, and he
blushed with joy.
He answered the
question and
handed it in. At
the end, the
teacher asked
him why he had
shouted and he
replied:
- Teacher, I
could not
remember the
answer to a
question that I
had studied. I
did not know
what to do, when
I saw Chad next
to me and he
reminded me that
the answer was
at the end of
the last page
marked for the
test! So I
remembered what
I had studied.
The teacher and
the students
were surprised
at what Alfred
said.
- And how is
Chad? - she
asked, showing
that she
understood what
had happened.
- Very well! He
is the same way,
in the same
clothes he liked,
but appears to
be lighter and
more smiley.
In the afternoon,
Alfred went to
Chad's house,
finding his
parents sad and
tearful. Then he
told them all
that had
happened,
including the
test of that
morning,
concluding:
- Chad asked me
to tell you that
he is very well
and lives with
his grandmother
Rosa. The fact
that you do not
believe in life
after death
complicates his
relationship
with you.
Moved and in
tears, Chad's
parents embraced
him, filled with
joy and hope.
- It is true
that we did not
believe in life
after death, but
with this
message our son
sent us, we
cannot help but
believe. Thank
you, Alfred! It
is life that you
gave back to us
with this news!
May Jesus bless
you always!
