PRAYER ??
CHRIS: Hi God ! I thought I'd remind you. I want to get these exams. Dad's promised to buy me a Sega if I pass. O.K.? Got to run . Playing Garry's computer with the crowd tonight. But remember the exams tomorrow .Thanks. GOD: Mm.
LYNSEY : Better kneel down. (kneels) Most loving God ,creator of the universe .I humbly ask you to remind my dad to give me the �5 he promised for the pictures . Please grant my request .Amen. GOD : Mm.
DAVID : Dear God, I'm fed up with Garry . He keeps bugging me every time he sees me in the corridor at school . Help me to find a way to zap him one when he least expects it. Amen. GOD : Mm.
SIMON : God ,if you're out there, and I'm not sure that you are, help me to understand what these people in our church have that I don't have. Help me to know you, 'cause they seem to and they say you can make my life different too. Thanks, Amen. GOD : Well I am here ,now let me show you my love..........
MICHELLE : Father God, It's not fair . My big brother gets to stay up late every night and I have to go to bed. I don't even get to stay up for 'The Bill ' and all my friends get to. It's not fair. He's allowed to do his homework when he wants to and I have to do it before I can go out to play,which isn't for long because I have to be in bed so early.It's not fair ,I have to wear that awful dress on Sunday for church and I'd rather wear my jeans . It's not fair...... (keeps rattling on) GOD : Mm.
JENNIFER : Dear Father God, Thank you for what's happened today. The good things and the bad. Help me to learn from the mistakes I've made. I'm sorry, I know I let you down when the rest of my class were teasing me about you I should have stood up to them , but I was scared of being laughed at. Help me to have more courage next time. I'm worried about my exams . I need at least a 'B' in English. Please help me to remember what I've revised and please keep me calm . Remember I told you about my friend Ann. She's still not better - so please can you make her well. Thank you for listening to me. I know you promised that even as I'm speaking, you are answering .I'm trusting you. Amen.
GOD: Yes. I'm answering .I hadn't forgotten about Ann or you. I'm glad you studied so hard for your exams. Don't worry ,I'll be with you
JENNIFER : Funny. I'm sure God said everything going to be alright.
THE END ? |
