Analysis of Saving touch.
As the surgeon saved her patient
an angel wondered what it would feel like
to save a life.
He had followed Gods direction to heal through Gods will and take souls back to heaven when it was their time.
But he wondered what it would be like to save a life and make it live wholeheartedly.
He considered the consequences...instant death of that newly reserected life,
A more traumatic life, a life without Gods purpose and direction, the creating of life without God as its creator, worse still God having to kill a whole betrayaled family for the good of mankind themselves.
And then he realised that all he really wanted is to know what it felt like to touch.
