It was a dark day for the holy dwellers of the St. Sebastian Church, one of the ancient churches of the modern day world. Nestled on an island it had seen days good and bad. But none this bad, this was on a different scale.
Rising waters and waves were to submerge the church by dusk. The prediction had been translated by the truest of believers, the truest of worshippers, the divine Pope himself. It had dawned upon him by divine intervention he reportedly said.
Evacuation was the only means of survival! The father and the head sisters were the first to be shifted. The others had volunteered to move next out of reverence. It was truly a holy place to be.
Gradually, the sun began to retire, into the depths of the sea.
But there still remained one devoted sister, yet to be moved to safety. Her deep devotion delayed her she claimed. She was still in the church, on the island. With the water rising!!!
Nightfall was fast approaching; there was no way she could be rescued...
But miracle works best, when least expected... She escaped from the jaws of death. It was, with no doubt, God’s play. A mind rattling mystery.
A delighted but stunned Pope exclaimed later in his chamber “How did u make it happen? God, Thusi great ho.” looking up into space, where he imagined a Godly presence.
God shrugged and replied “What could I do?? After all as they say, TIME AND TIDE WAIT FOR NUN"
