A Message 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 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 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 instead.

 

I watched patiently all day long.

With all your activities

I guess you were too busy to say anything to me.

 

I noticed that before lunch you looked around,

maybe you felt embarressed 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.

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

 

P.S. ? Do you have enough time to send this to

another person?
