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 wear.

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 to 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 instead. I watched
patiently all day long. With all our activities I guess you were too
busy to say
anything to me.


I noticed that before lunch you looked around, maybe you felt
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 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 and you spend 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 once again. 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

PS - Do you have enough time to send this to another person?
If you aren't ashamed to do this, please follow the directions. Jesus
said,
"If you are ashamed of me, I will be ashamed of you before my Father."

Not ashamed -- pass this on . . . only if you mean it.

Yes, I do Love God. He is my source of existence and Savior.
He keeps me functioning each and everyday.
Without Him, I will be nothing. Without him, I am nothing; but with Him
I
can do all things through Christ that strengthens me. (Phil 4:13)

This is the simplest test .. . . if you Love God, and are not ashamed
of all
the marvelous things he has done for you, send this to ten people and
the
person who sent it to you!
