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 for my opinion or thanking me for something good that happened
in your life yesterday. But I noticed that 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 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
even 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 I 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 TV
and ate your meal but again, you didn't talk to me.
As you did your
paperwork I waited again. You did what you had to do. At 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, prayers 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
