Aya page 8 by ric gustafson
One night, Aya smiled at Avidan.
" I am with child". She put a hand on her growing belly. " You will be a father this fall".
" Praise Adonai". His eyes crinkled. " I must tell our parents".
Avidan kissed Aya's forehead. " You have made me very happy".
One day, Aya noticed more activity going on in the city. She asked the women as she drew water from the Pool of Siloam.
" What's going on in the city?".
One of the women smiled. " It's Passover dear".
The yearly event brought thousands of visitors to the city.
" Showing hospitality is a commandment here".
Aya thought about her small house. " But our house is small for visitors".
" Having guests is a blessing".
