The Tiger Story (Little Girl Version)

 

There once was a tiger on the prowl and oh! He was so ferocious.  Huddled in the corner there was a girl, and around her there was this terrible darkness.  “Roar, roar!” said the tiger, and she could see the spit drooling from his mouth.

 A great white light flashed everywhere, all over the earth, and then out of the light there stepped a man.  He held out his hand and he said to the tiger, “Stop!”  You must not eat this lady.”

 It was Jesus! “You found me!” she cried.  “I can’t believe you came to save the day!”

 “I’m here, little girl,” he said.  No one will ever harm you again.  And do you see that little tiger over there?  He’s just sad and old, and he’s frightened.  Do you see? He didn’t even mean to harm you in the first place.”

 “Now I see,” she said.

 Jesus hugged her and dried the tears from her face. Together they walked towards the tiger, and then the tiger nudged her with his nose. He licked the palm of her hand, and that’s when she knew that she would never be frightened of anything ever, ever again.
