Subject: Letter From God

As you got up this morning,
I watched you and hoped you would talk to me,
even if it was just a few words,
asking my opinion or thanking me
for something good that happened in your life yesterday -
but I noticed you were too busy trying to find
the right outfit to put on and wear to work.

I waited again.
When you ran around the house
getting ready I knew there would be a few minutes
for you to stop and say hello, but you were too busy.

At one point you had to wait fifteen minutes with nothing to do except sit
in a chair. Then I saw you spring to your feet.
I thought you wanted to talk to me but you ran to the
phone and called a friend to get the latest gossip.

I watched as you went to work and
I waited patiently all day long.
With all your activities I guess you
were too busy to say anything to me.
noticed that before lunch you looked around,
maybe you felt to embarrassed to talk to me,
that is why you didn't bow your head.

You glanced three or four tables over and you
noticed some of your friends talking to me briefly
before they ate, but you didn't.

That's okay.
There is still more time left, and I have hope that
you will talk to me, yet you went home and it seems
as if you had lots of things to do.

After a few of them were done you turned on the TV.
I don't know if you like TV or not,
just about anything goes there &
you spent a lot of time each day in front of it,
not thinking about anything - just enjoying the show.

I waited patiently again as you watched the TV
and ate your meal, but again, you didn't talk to me.

Bedtime I guess you felt too tired.
After you said goodnight to your family
you plopped into bed and fell asleep in no time.
That's okay because you may not realize that
I am always there for you.
I've got patience more than you will ever know.
I even want to teach you how to be patient with others as well.

I love you so much that I wait everyday for a nod,
prayer or thought or a thankful part of your heart.
It is hard to have a one-sided conversation.

Well, you are getting up again and once again
I will wait with nothing but love for you
hoping that today you will give me some time.

Have a nice day!
Your friend,
GOD
