Conversation with God
YOU: Our Father who art in heaven…
GOD: Yes? I'm here…
YOU: Please don't interrupt me, I'm praying!
GOD: But you called me!
YOU: Did I call? I didn't call anyone. I'm praying…. Our father that is in heaven…
GOD: Oh, you did it again.
YOU: Did what?
GOD: Called me! You said: Our Father who art in heaven. I'm here. How can I help you?
YOU: But I didn't mean it. It's just that I'm praying. I pray the Our Father every day, I feel good praying like this. It's as if it was a duty. And I don't feel good until I do it...
GOD: But how can you say Our Father, without remembering that everyone is your brothers, how can you say that you are in heaven, if you don't know that heaven is peace, that heaven is love to all?
YOU: Yeah, I really hadn't thought of that yet.
GOD: But continue your prayer.
YOU: Hallowed be Your name…
GOD: Wait a minute! What do you mean by that?
YOU: I mean… I mean, it's… I don't know what it means. How am I supposed to know? It's part of the prayer, that's all!
GOD: Sanctified means worthy of respect, Holy, Holy.
YOU: Now I get it. But I had never thought of the meaning of that word SANCTIFIED. “Your kingdom come to us, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven…”
GOD: Are you serious?
YOU: Sure! Why not?
GOD: And what do you do to make that happen?
YOU: What do I do? Nothing! It is part of the prayer, besides it would be good if the Lord had control of everything that happened in heaven and on earth as well.
GOD: Do I have control over you?
YOU: Well, I go to church!
GOD: That's not what I asked! How about the way you treat your brothers, the way you spend your money, how much time you give to television, the advertisements you run after, and how little time you devote to Me?
You please. Stop criticizing!
GOD: Sorry. I thought you were asking for my will to be done. If this happens, it has to be with those who pray, but who accept my will, the cold, the sun, the rain, nature, the community.
YOU: That's right, you're right. I think I never accept your will, because I complain about everything: if it sends rain, I ask for the sun, if it sends the sun I complain about the heat, if it sends cold, I keep complaining, if I'm sick, I ask for health, but I don't take care of it, I stop feed or eat a lot…
GOD: Great to acknowledge all of that. We're going to work together, Me and You, but look, we're going to have wins and losses. I'm enjoying this new attitude of yours.
YOU: Look Lord, I need to finish now. This prayer is taking much longer than it used to be. I will continue: … “Give us this day our daily bread…”
GOD: Stop there! Are you asking me for material bread? Man lives not only on bread, but also on my word. When you ask me for bread, remember those who don't even know bread. You can ask me what you want as long as you see me as a loving Father! I'm interested in the next part of your prayer. Continues!
YOU: "Forgive our offenses, as we forgive those who have offended us..."
GOD: And your despised brother?
Are you seeing? Look Lord, he's criticized several times and it wasn't true what he said. Now I can't forgive. I need revenge.
GOD: But what about your prayer? What does your prayer mean? You called me, and I'm here, I want you to leave here transfigured, I'm enjoying you being honest. But it's not good to carry the weight of anger inside you, is it?
YOU: I think I would feel better if I got revenge!
GOD: No it won't! You will feel worse. Revenge is not as sweet as it sounds. Think of the sadness it would cause me, think of your sadness now. I can change everything for you. You just want to.
You may? But how?
GOD: Forgive your brother, I will forgive you and relieve you.
YOU: But Lord, I can't forgive you.
GOD: So don't ask me for forgiveness either!
YOU: Again that's right! But I just want revenge, I want peace with the Lord. All right, all right, I forgive everyone, but help me Lord. Show me the right path for me and my enemies.
GOD: What you ask for is wonderful, I'm very happy with you. How are you feeling?
YOU: Well, very well indeed! To tell you the truth, I've never felt like this! It feels so good to talk to God.
GOD: We haven't finished the prayer yet. Proceed…
YOU: "And let not temptation, but deliver us from evil..."
GOD: Great, I'll do just that, but don't put yourself in situations where you might be tempted.
YOU: What do you mean by that?
GOD: Stop walking in the company of people who lead you to participate in dirty things, intrigues, gossip. Abandon evil, hate. This will all lead you down the wrong path. Don't use all of this as an emergency exit!
YOU: I don't understand!
GOD: Of course you understand! You've already done this with me many times. Get into the error, then run to me for help.
YOU: I'm so ashamed, Forgive me Lord!
GOD: Of course I forgive! I always forgive those who are willing to forgive too, but don't forget, when you call me, remember our conversation, meditate on every word you speak! Finish your prayer.
YOU: Finish? Oh yes, "AMEN!"
GOD: What does AMEN mean?
YOU: I don't know. It is the end of the prayer.
GOD: You should only say AMEN when you agree to say everything I want, when you agree with my will, when you follow my commandments, because AMEN! I mean, SO BE IT, I agree with everything I've prayed for.
YOU: Lord, thank you for teaching me this prayer and now thank you for making me understand it.
GOD: I love each of my children, I love even more those who want to get out of error, those who want to be free from sin. I bless you and take my peace!
YOU: Thank you Lord! I'm very happy to know you're my friend.
