Yama the Llama--Off to Bethlehem

by Karla Lowe-Phelps

Overview

"Yama the Llama is shepherding sheep in the Andes Mountains when an angel choir flies overhead. The next thing he knows, he has wings and is flying with the angels. They are singing, but he doesn't have a voice, so he wonders why he is flying with the angel choir. He continues to fly along, trusting that this is what he is supposed to do.
He looks down as they fly over the stable where Jesus has just been born. He wants to stop, but an angel tells him that he has something else to do. Again, he flies along in trust.
He lands in a field of sheep and shepherds and overhears the angel telling them about the baby Jesus in the stable. Then he hears the shepherds discuss the many different stables around Bethlehem and their confusion about which is the right stable.
Yama steps forward, opens his mouth, and discovers that he can talk. He tells the shepherds to follow him and he leads them to the stable where they all worship Jesus, the newborn King of kings!
"Blessed are the pure in heart; for they shall see God." Matt 5:8"

About the Author

Karla Lowe-Phelps works with her husband, Russel on their cattle ranch in Southwest Missouri. Together they raise registered Black Angus for breeding stock. Her favorite times of the year are Spring and Fall when the calves are born. She and Russel have traveled nationally and internationally, meeting people and llamas in as varied places as Conway, Missouri and Belo Horizonte, Brazil! Karla was surprised to meet llamas in Australia. She especially adored one llama named Hannah, who was very loving and who inspired the drawings of Yama. Karla is passionate about children. She believes that showing children that they are the beloved creation of God is as essential to their growth as good nutrition. She and Russel raised three sons who are, now, the fathers of their 5 grandchildren. They have also supported eight children through ChildFund. Yama the Llama is dedicated to her grandchildren and the children of ChildFund. A portion of every book sold goes to support the health and education of Third World mothers and children. Karla is a retired Nurse Practitioner and is a second career hospital chaplain.
