Alain Auderset releases a new graphic novel. The imérien artist varnishes this Saturday the volume 4 of “Rendez-vous dans la forêt”. The first copies have already sold more than 25,000 copies across the Francophonie. The author tells us about the encounters in nature with passers-by, friends or even his Creator. With this new volume, it is above all behind the scenes of his life as an artist that Alain Auderset takes his readers. He takes them from the Frankfurt Book Fair to the dark night of the forest of St-Imier.



The opening takes place on Saturday. First online from 11 am. The doors of Alain Auderset’s Imérien workshop, at rue de la Malathe 14, will then be open to the public from 5 p.m.
It will be possible to obtain volume 4 of “Rendez-vous dans la forêt” at the counter of the post office in St-Imier and the surrounding villages. It will also be available on Alain Auderset’s website.

(This drawing was made by my son Benjamin. It portrays Spyke so well… He loved playing and rolling in the sun.) 
 
Spyke is gone
My dog (my life buddy)'s health was declining rapidly. 
So, I asked the Lord what I was supposed to do: he was only 8 and a half years old. Was I to pray for him to heal?  
(I witnessed a couple of miraculous healings during my life, so why not his?)  But He answered:  
– Let him go, Alain. His time has come. 
His answer reminded me that we were nothing but passers-by on earth and that it was only natural that we should go one day. 
If the most caring and fair person I know (God) says so, then I know that the best thing to do is just to accept he would soon die…  
 

 
On Sunday, our small family gathered on the deck to spend one last moment with him. Witnessing everyone’s sadness wasn’t easy, but it truly was such a beautiful day of fall… The forest's beautiful colors were enhanced by the sun. Such peace emanated, that I had the feeling I hadn’t actually noticed it before. Spyke was suffering and could hardly move, but I realized that he came to each one of us, wagging his tail feebly, as if to say goodbye. 
In the evening, at home, Spyke left us. I saw him leave; I saw his life fading away. In tears, I carried his little body to the animal care center. I couldn't walk straight and was afraid of dropping him. I so wanted to be with him until the end, so when they put him in a freezer until cremation… my heart shattered for good. 
 
As I was leaving the place, I was crying at the thought of my lifeless dog, abandoned in this cold and horrible box. That's when Jesus told me: 
– He's gone, Alain… Gone!
His words comforted me, it wasn't my dog I had left there, it was just his body, he wasn't there anymore. 

I'm grateful to the Lord for having known Spyke all these years, my doggo so full of joy and life… I am more than ever determined to make the most of every single moment I am given. I'll rejoice in everything around me. I'll savor still living on this earth and being able to bless people with my writings and my drawings. And, of course, I'll go in the forest to talk with God… without Spyke.
Spyke in my books….
My little dog can be seen for the first time in "Meet me in the forest 2" *. He was just a baby then, and was so cute!! And, of course, since he's a part of my life, he was back in " Meet me in the forest 3" *. Check him out… he's a real piece of work!!


Long before he was born, I had given "Robi" a little dog named Sir Flea Skwad, a spy serving the Creator and employed at helping his owner… I wasn't aware of it then, but I now realize God was preparing me to welcome Spyke. And my Creator has helped me a lot through him, just like in the strips.

(Le dessin qui accompagne ce texte à été réalisé par mon fils Benjamin. Ça représente tellement bien Spyke... Il adorait jouer et se rouler dans les rayons du soleil.)
Spyke est parti
La santé de mon chien, ce petit compagnon de vie, s'est rapidement dégradée.
Alors j’ai demandé au Seigneur ce que je devais faire: il n'a que 8 ans et demi, faut-il que je prie pour sa guérison? 
(J’ai déjà assisté à plusieurs guérisons miraculeuses dans ma vie, alors pourquoi pas pour lui?) Mais Il m’a répondu:
- Laisse-le s'éteindre Alain, c’est son temps de partir.
 
Sa réponse m'a rappelé que nous sommes tous de passage sur terre, que c’est normal de nous en aller. 
Si Dieu, l’être le plus compatissant et le plus juste que je connaisse, me dit cela, alors je sais qu’accepter sa mort prochaine est la meilleure chose à faire…

C’est dimanche, avec la petite famille, on s’est retrouvé sur la terrasse de ma fille, pour être ensemble une dernière fois avec lui. Ce n’est pas facile de voir la tristesse des miens, mais c’est vraiment un beau jour d’automne... Le soleil chaleureux met en valeur les belles couleurs de la forêt. Il y a une grande sérénité qui s’en dégage et j’ai l’impression de ne jamais l'avoir autant remarqué. Spyke souffre, se déplace avec peine, mais j’ai remarqué qu’il est passé près de chacun de nous, comme pour nous saluer une dernière fois en remuant faiblement sa queue.
 
Le soir, de retour chez nous, Spyke est parti. Je l’ai vu chavirer, j’ai vu sa vie le quitter. Alors, en larmes, j’ai pris son petit corps dans mes bras pour l’emmener à la clinique pour animaux. Je n’arrivais plus à marcher droit, et j’ai eu peur de le faire tomber. J’ai insisté pour le suivre jusqu’au bout, alors lorsqu’on l'a mis dans un grand congélo en attendant la crémation...ça a fini de me compresser le cœur.
 
En quittant ce lieu, je pleurais en pensant à mon chien inerte que j'avais abandonné dans cette horrible boîte froide. C’est alors que Jésus m’a dit:
- Il est parti, Alain... il est parti!
Sa parole m’a consolé, ce n’est pas mon chien que j’ai laissé là, c’est juste son corps, lui n’est plus là.

Je remercie le Seigneur d'avoir connu Spyke toutes ces années, ce petit chien plein de joie de vivre... Je suis plus que résolu de continuer de profiter de chaque moment présent qui m'est offert, de me réjouir de la présence de ce qui m’entoure, de la chance de pouvoir être encore sur terre, de bénir le plus de gens possible avec mes écrits, mes dessins, avec le peu que je sais faire...  je vais surtout continuer d’aller en forêt pour parler à Dieu... mais sans Spyke.
 



 
Spyke dans mes livres….
Mon petit chien apparaît pour la première fois dans “Rendez-vous dans la forêt 2”, où on le voit tout bébé, il est trop mignon!! Comme il fait partie de mon quotidient, il revient forcément dans le “Rendez-vous dans la forêt 3”, vous verrez, c’est un sacré miston!!

Mais bien avant sa naissance, j’avais donné à “Robi”, un petit chien du nom de Sakaïpus. J’en avais fait un agent secret du Créateur qui s’en est servi pour venir en aide à son maître… Je ne m’en rends compte que maintenant, mais par ce petit personnage secondaire, Dieu me préparait à recevoir Spyke. Et comme pour la BD, mon Créateur m’aura beaucoup appris et aidé à travers lui.

Die Zeichnung zum Text stammt übrigens von meinem Sohn Benjamin. Spyke wird da so gut dargestellt…Er liebte es zu spielen und sich in den Sonnenstrahlen zu wälzen.
 
Spyke ist von uns gegangen
Der Gesundheitszustand meines Hundes, meines kleinen Lebensgefährten, hat sich im Nu verschlechtert.
Also habe ich den Herrn gefragt, was ich tun sollte : Er ist doch erst achteinhalb Jahre alt, soll ich nun für seine Heilung beten? (Ich hab in meinem Leben schon mehrere wundersame Heilungen erlebt, warum nicht auch er?) Aber ER hat mir geantwortet: „Lass ihn los, es ist Zeit, dass er geht.“
 
Seine Antwort hat mich daran erinnert, dass wir hier auf Erden nur auf der Durchreise sind und es normal für uns ist zu scheiden. Wenn Gott - das barmherzigste, gerechteste Lebewesen, das ich kenne - mir das sagt, dann weiß ich, dass es am besten ist, seinen baldigen Tod anzunehmen. 

Am Sonntag versammeln wir uns dann als kleine Familie auf der Terrasse meiner Tochter, um ein letztes Mal mit ihm zusammen zu sein.    Es ist nicht leicht, die Meinigen traurig zu sehen, aber es ist wirklich ein schöner Herbsttag…Die freundliche Sonne bringt die schönen Waldfarben zur Geltung. Sie strahlen so eine Gelassenheit aus, wie ich es bis heute  noch nie so wahrgenommen habe. Spyke leidet und bewegt sich nur mühsam, aber ich bemerke, wie er zu jedem von uns hingeht, als würde er uns zum letzten Mal grüßen, indem er schwach mit seinem Schwanz wedelt. 
 
Am Abend wieder zu Hause angekommen, ist er dann von uns gegangen. Ich sah ihn umkippen und aus dem Leben scheiden.  Unter Tränen nahm ich dann seinen kleinen Körper auf meine Arme, um ihn zur Tierklinik zu bringen. Ich konnte nicht mehr gerade laufen und hatte Angst, ihn fallen zu lassen. Ich bestand darauf, ihn bis zum Schluss zu begleiten. Man hat ihn bis zur Einäscherung in eine große Tiefkühltruhe getan… Das hat mir am Schluss das Herz zerdrückt. 
Beim Verlassen dieses Ortes musste ich weinen bei dem Gedanken,  meinen leblosen Hund in dieser schrecklichen kalten Box zurückgelassen zu haben. Dann aber hat mir Jesus gesagt :  « Er ist gegangen, Alain…er ist gegangen !“ Seine Worte haben mich getröstet, ich habe nicht meinen Hund dort zurückgelassen, sondern nur seinen Körper, er ist nicht mehr da. 

Ich danke dem Herrn für all die Jahre mit Spyke, diesem kleinen Hund voller Lebensfreude…Ich bin fest entschlossen, weiterhin jeden Augenblick, der mir geschenkt wird, zu nutzen, mich über die Gegenwart meiner Nächsten zu freuen, über das Glück, noch auf Erden zu sein, so viele Leute wie möglich zu segnen durch meine Schriften, meine Zeichnungen und mit dem Wenigen, was ich kann …und vor Allem weiterhin in den Wald zu gehen, um mit Gott zu reden, …nur ohne Spyke. 
 




 
 
Spyke in meinen Büchern…
Mein kleiner Hund taucht zum ersten Mal im Buch « Treffen im Wald 2 » als Baby auf, einfach zu süß !! Da er zu meinem Leben gehörte, erscheint er zwangsläufig im dritten Band. Ihr werdet sehen, was es für ein toller Kerl ist!! ( Im deutschen Handel noch nicht erhältlich)
