An Interview With GOD

God answers the interviewer's questions with thoughtful insights about humanity. God observes that people often forget the present by worrying about the future, and die having not fully lived. God also notes that people rush through childhood to adulthood, then long to be children again, and sacrifice health for wealth only to want health back without wealth. When asked about life's lessons, God wants children to learn to let themselves be loved rather than make others love them, that relationships matter more than possessions, not to compare themselves, and that true wealth needs little. God also wants children to learn the power of words, forgiveness, understanding others, and God's eternal presence.

I dreamed I had an interview with God.

"So, you would like to interview me?" God asked.


"If you have the time," I said.
God smiled. "My time is eternity; what questions
do you
have in mind to ask me?”

"What surprises you most about humankind?..."


GOD ANSWERED...
That by thinking anxiously about the future,
they forget the present, such that they live in
neither the present nor the future.
That they live as if they will never die, and they die as
if they had never lived..."

"That they get bored with childhood - they rush


to grow up and then long to be children again.
That they lose their health to make money and then lose
their money to restore their health.
God's hands took mine and we were silent for while
and then I asked...
"As a parent, what are some of life's lessons you
want your children to learn?"

God replied with a smile:


"To learn that they cannot make anyone love them.
What they can do is to let themselves be loved.
To learn that what is most valuable is not what they have
in their lives, but who they have in their lives.

To learn that it is not good to compare themselves to


others.

To learn that a rich person is not the one who has the
most, but is one who needs the least.
To learn that it only takes a few seconds to open
profound wounds in persons one loves, and that it may take many
years to heal them.

To learn to forgive by practicing forgiveness


To learn that there are
persons who love them dearly,
but simply do not know
how to express or show their
feelings.
To learn that money can buy everything but ..
HAPPINESS!!!!
To learn that two people can look at the same thing and
see it very differently.
To learn that it is not always enough that they be
orgiven by others, but that they must also forgive themse
And to learn that I am here -- always."
