Sam's Betrayal



Sam was betrayed by his own mother ten years beofre his birth. His whole life he has been different, but trying to be normal.


Finding out he has demon blood could be enough to desroy any man, but Sam clings to the hope that by doing good he can somehow turn his curse around.


He believes in God...in angels...he prays. When Sam finally meets Castiel he acts like a fan, and what does he get in return? Castiel will not touch him at first, then when he does he says: "the boy with the demon blood."


Such denial and rejection would hurt anyone, but Sam is particularly afraid of rejection. Can the angels understand him? Or will they send him further down the dark path? Do they care?


Has Sam's faith been broken? Will it be enough if Dean reminds him that he should still have faith.


Sam is being denied grace for something beyond his control. Is this his destiny.....what he will become?
