“Whenever I speak to a group, I always ask, “God, what is it You want me to say?”
Over and over, and as if for the first time, He says, “Make sure . . .”
I lean in, curious, totally forgetting the last twenty times. “Make sure of what?”
“Make sure you tell them,” He pauses for effect, “that I love them.” ”

“That night, I continued my on-going chat with God. “Did Pam’s prayer count? I love her. And I understand her wanting a ticket to heaven, but her prayer seemed more like fire insurance against hell than a heartfelt desire to hang out with You.”
“Don’t worry.” God smiled. “No one comes to me with pure motives.”
Wow! I thought for a minute. “You really do love us, don’t You?”
“I do.”

“And I know, as we stand in the checkout line at the grocery store reading the latest scandal sheet, our culture tells us we can boil everything down to ten steps. But when it comes to a thing with God, I can’t do that. I think He’s got a unique adventure for each of us. For those who want it. ”

“I struggled with anxiety and loneliness, even in a crowded room. I never felt like I was enough. I ate Tums like candy. And I know this sounds all beauty-contestant-answerish, but I just wanted inner peace, a place to come in out of the rain. I needed, well, God, really, but you couldn’t have told me that then, not until the crap hit the fan. You know, those no-one-can- save-you-but-God things? An actual life or death experience. I’m not kidding, I didn’t think I was going to live, but instinctively I cried out and BAM! There God was, not judgmental and mean, but the ultimate friend. He came through in a big way! I’ll be honest with you, I flippin’ drank the Kool-Aid. ”
