Chapter 11

FLYING HORSES

THE NEXT MORNING I woke to the singing of a tiny bird perched on the open window. I’m sure he said, “Good morning,” although I didn’t actually hear the words. It was the concept of his wishes for me that I heard in my mind. I had only been awake for a few minutes, but thoughts came to mind almost faster than I could process them. I wondered how much my brain would accelerate if I continued my stay on Kandalaura,

Quickly I dressed and stepped out onto a large branch, which lowered me to the ground, the same branch that had lifted me the night before.

“Thank you,” I said in English.

“My pleasure,” was the thought that returned to me from the tree.

This could take some getting used to, talking to these plants and animals.

My knees still felt a little giddy from worship the night before, but I felt strong inside. The reality of seeing Jesus had definitely left its mark on me. I would never be the same.

For my body, I grabbed some fruit from a nearby branch and began eating. No sooner had I plucked it off, than it reappeared on the branch. I hope Andron and Nicholas never take this for granted. It amazes me every time I see it happen.

“I see you’re up and ready for our new adventure,” said Andron. “Have you ever ridden a horse before?”

“Not yet,” I replied. “But I’ve always wanted to.”

“Well, you’re about to get your wish,” said Andron. “Close your eyes.” He led me a few feet away and put my hand on something that felt soft and furry. “Now open.”

I opened my eyes to see the most beautiful white horse ever. It was huge.

“This is Kandaletta. Kandaletta, this is Mikey.”

Kandaletta neighed and nodded her head. Immediately I felt like she was my friend, but I was still apprehensive about riding her.

“Don’t worry,” said Andron. “Even if you were to fall, Kandaletta would catch you.”

I guess he thinks that will make me feel secure, but the thought of falling doesn’t appeal to me.

When Andron helped me up, I noticed there were no reins.

“No need for them,” he said. “The horses know where we want them to go as soon as we think it.

Andron mounted his horse, Lightning, the blackest horse I have ever seen. I grabbed Kandaletta’s mane with both hands and tightened my legs around her. The horses took off so fast I didn’t have time to be scared. In a moment we were airborne.

Yikes! These horses have wings!

Feeling such immense power beneath me along with the graceful movement of those wings was thrilling beyond belief. The exhilaration of the wind against my face coupled with majestic mountains and thick green forests beneath me was indescribable.

This would be a ride I’d always remember.
