THE FLY WHO

WANTED TO BE A

GOD

Once upon a time there was a fly who live in the

tiny coconut kingdom called agama niyog. This particular

fly was unlike the flies that we know and see around us

today. This is because this fly was God's favorite, it didn't

fly around to look for food. All it had to do was wish for

something and God would give it.

For a time the fly enjoyed in God-favored existence. But

one day as it was flying around, it unintentionally entered

a palace.

It saw the solotan surrounded by his wives and

concubines. The fly became envious. So when it

reaches home it asked God to make it a solotan.

What happen next in the story?

THE FLY

BECAME A

SOLOTAN

The fly's wish granted in no time. So it came to

pass that the fly became a solotan. And just like

solotans of other countries, the fly had several

wives and concubines. but later it got tired. The fly

went home to its former dwelling and asked

Archangel Gabriel to ask God to make him a

prophet.

Archangel Gabriel prostrated himself before

god then he said, "Dear God, the fly wants to

become a prophet. "

What happen next in the story?

THE FLY

BECAME A

PROPHET

After a few minutes Archangel Gabriel heard a voice

say, "Go tell him that I'll make him a prophet."

But being a prophet was not an easy job so the fly

found out. it had to travel from one place to another

talking to people about faith and love. The fly found out

that a prophet's life was not a bed of roses. there were

always people who wanted to kill it.

One day the fly really got tired of being a prophet

and it called for Archangel Gabriel. "Please tell God that

I no longer want to continue being a prophet."

"What do you wish to be now?", Archangel Gabriel

asked.

What would be the wish of the Fly?

THE FLY

WISH TO

BECOME A

GOD

"I want to become god." the fly said. "Perhaps if I

become one, I would happy and satisfied."

Archangel Gabriel thought that the fly's wish was

too much. but just the same he prostrated himself before

God and said: "Dear god, the fly wants to become a god

now. He grown tired of being a prophet.

After God hear the wish of the fly…what happen

next in the story?

When god heard this he promptly changed the fly

to its original form.

If you look at a fly very closely, you will notice that

it keeps on rubbing its hind legs together. This was its

punishment for wishing to become a god.
