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.
I 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 was still more time left, and I had hope that you would
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; 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 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
