Today's LETTER..

A LETTER FROM . . . .

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 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 Life !

Your friend,
GOD
