An Inquiring Boy Talks to God

An inquiring boy was talking with God one day...

'God,I have some questions I need to ask you.'

And God answers him: 'Son, what is it you need of Me?...and don't call me God, just call me Father.'

'Oh, OK...Father, I have heard that you are Eternal...but I don't understand what that means...'

'Well, son, think of it this way: For Me, a million years of your time is like just one second.'

'Wow, just one second...'

'Yes, time is different for me...But the thing about time is this: You can't always be in a hurry: You must lear to be patient, because all things come in their time...Do you understand what I mean?'

'I think so...(pauses)...Father, is there money in heaven?'

God smiles...'Son, think of it this way: A million of your dollars is just like a penny to me...My money is Love, Wisdom and the power that comes from these things...Do you understand what I say?'

The young boy is awestruck...'Yes, Father, I think I do...Wow...Father can I ask you for something?'

'Yes, anytime.'

'Do you think I could have just a penny of your money?'

'Yes son, you certainly can...But you may have to wait just a second...'
