>The surgeon had had enough. "I'll tell

>The surgeon sat in his office, recording his

>The Lord answered and said, "The boy,
>My lamb, was not meant for your
>flock for long, for he is a part of My
>flock, and will forever be.
>Here, in My flock, he will feel no pain, and
>will be comforted as you cannot imagine.
>His parents will one day join him here,
>and they will know peace, and
>My flock will continue to grow"
>
>The surgeon's tears were hot, but his
>anger was hotter. "You created that
>boy, and You created that heart. He'll
>be dead in months. Why?"

>
>The Lord answered, "The boy, My lamb,
>shall return to My flock, for He has
>Done his duty: I did not put My lamb
>with your flock to lose him, but to retrieve another
>lost lamb."

>The surgeon wept.. The surgeon sat
>beside the boy's bed; the boy's
>parents sat across from him. The boy awoke and
>whispered, "Did you cut open my heart?"

>
>"Yes," said the surgeon.

>
>"What did you find?" asked the boy.

>"I found Jesus there," said the
