Over the border

They were a young couple walking miles and miles to save their son.

Walking until their feet were sore, their shoes worn through, but they would do anything to save their son and finally after what seemed like an eternity they reached the border seeking sanctuary.Thirsty and afraid, the young mother ran towards it, towing her child by the hand.

Then the tear gas hit and they tried to run away from it, but the more they ran the more it burned their lungs and the child stopped crying because he could only gasp for air. They crossed the border and were immediately swooped up.

The mother was sent to a women's detention facility. The father to a men's and the child was taken into custody because both parents were criminals trying to escape an evil man in their own country, a man who would kill their son if he could get his hands on them. Jesus was put in a state run private facility because everyone was afraid to apply as a foster parent for fear they would be deported too, even if they were legal aliens. And the state didn't waste any of their good money on him either.

But wait . . .

That's not how it happened.

He will come again, but what if he isn't a white upper class wealthy American? He wasn't the last time.
