WHEN I TALK WITH GOD, I WILL…
Ask him how he became God - Yahweh?
Ask him how he created the universe?
Ask him how we can be instruments of his love?
Ask him what are the universal truths?
Ask him how we can be there for him?
Ask him how he copes with pain and suffering?
Ask him how I can forgive others and be forgiven?
Ask him how good and evil exists together?
Then,
Listen! Listen! Listen!
