7/31/2019 O Estranho - The Stranger
1/4
There once was a land that was so isolated
that its inhabitants believed the mountains
surrounding their little valley formed
the edge of the
world. And for
them it did. Once
in a blue moonsomeone would
venture beyond
the mountains and
come back with
fantastic stories
about what theydseen and
experienced, but
their reports were
routinely dismissed
as fabrications and
quickly forgotten.
Havia uma terra de tal forma isolada, que seus
habitantes acreditavam que as montanhas que
rodeavam o pequeno vale onde viviam
formavam os limites
do mundo. E para
eles, formavam
mesmo. Muito
raramente, algum
se aventurava alm
das montanhas e
voltava com histrias
fantsticas sobre o
que havia visto e
vivenciado. Mas
relatos assim eram
tipicamente
descartados como
invenes e
rapidamente esquecidos.

Life in that inward-looking little land was difficult,
but the people had become so accustomed to the
daily struggle that most of the time they just
accepted it. Life got really hard, however, when the
river would suddenly overflow without warning
and bury their village in mud, or their crops would
mysteriously catch fire in the night, or the water
from their wells made them and their animals
deathly sick.
A vida naquela terra introspectiva era difcil, mas
as pessoas estavam to acostumadas lida diria
que normalmente no se importavam com as
dificuldades. Entretanto, as coisas pioravam muito
quando o rio, de repente, transbordava e
soterrava a vila com lama, ou suas plantaes,
sem nenhuma explicao, pegavam fogo, ou a
gua de seus mananciais deixavam pessoas e
animais mortalmente doentes.

Then one day a stranger came and told them more fantastic
stories about a wonderful kingdom beyond the mountains, but
they laughed him to scorn. They also didnt believe him when
he said that the flash floods, mysterious fires and poisoned
wells were the work of a dark prince who ruled another not-
so-wonderful kingdom beyond the mountains, and that he
the strangerhad come to teach them how to defend
themselves against the dark princes attacks. After awhile the
stranger left and they never heard from him again. And to this
day the people of that land continue to struggle, as they
always have.
Um dia, apareceu um estranho que lhes contou histrias
fantsticas sobre um reino maravilhoso alm das montanhas,
mas apenas debocharam dele. No acreditaram quando disse
que as enchentes repentinas e os incndios misteriosos eram
obras do prncipe das trevas, que governava um reino
perverso, alm das montanhas e que ele o estranho
viera para lhes ensinar a se defender dos ataques desse
inimigo. Depois de um tempo, o estranho foi embora e nunca
mais se ouviu notcias dele. E at hoje, as pessoas daquela
terra enfrentam as mesmas dificuldades de sempre.

Jesus is a lot like the stranger in that
story, except that we will never hear the
last from Him. He came to make our livesbetter, He wants to reveal to us the secrets
of the spirit world, and Hes always just a
prayer away.
Jesus Se assemelha muito ao estranho
da histria, exceto que Ele jamais vai
desaparecer. Veio para melhorar nossa
vida e quer nos revelar os segredos domundo espiritual. Ele est sempre a
apenas uma orao de distncia.
