Where am I?
You are in heaven dear child.
So...I died?
It seems so. But tell me, who are you?
It is me, O GOD almighty, Your child, one that you have created with Your own hands; one that You love and protect; one that You set aside from the rest of the goats. (Sheep and Goats reference)
I would remember who My child is. If You are My child, then why did you not follow Me?
Huh? What do You mean LORD?
If you were a sheep, would you not have followed the Shepherd? Would you not have put My directions before your own?
Of course! I have followed You here, in heaven. I listen to all Your commands. And I-
Oh yes, everyone can listen, but what have you ‘done’ for Me as you were merely following?
For You? How could I do anything for You, LORD? For you were up here in heaven when I was done there on the Earth.
My dear child, this is your judgment day in heaven. If you lived a pure and GOD fearing life you can live with us in heaven.
How do I live a pure life? Aren’t we all sinners?
Well, it doesn’t matter to you anymore, you being dead and all.
Yeah, gee thanks GOD. Way to really ‘brighten’ up the mood.
It is true that we are all sinners, but when people repent their sins are forgiven and then are erased from the book of records that I keep for every person on the Earth.
Okay...but then what’s the difference between repenting and ‘I’m sorry’?
When you repent, the sins that you committed are forgiven. They are forgiven in a manner that you should not do the sin again because when you repent, you beg for mercy more me to forgive you, and when I do, it is a blessing. When you are ‘sorry’, you [humans] tend to be sorry for that moment and try to do the same sin again, which is where the Holy Spirit, or ‘conscience’, comes into play. After being ‘sorry’ you feel the guilt talking to you. The guilt is My Spirit talking to you to ‘stop’ or be used as a warning to sin.
O.K. So, I repented and my sins were forgiven. I lived a pure life. Now can I go?
Let’s not be hasty. It is true that you lived a pure life, but what have you ‘done’ for me?
Ugh…there you go again with the ‘What have you done for me?’ thing. Well what could I have done? You are the Great Almighty. What could I have possibly done to help you?
My people? What about them?
Huh? What about them?
I have created every single person on the Earth. The good, the bad, the demon possessed, the righteous, everything that breaths is my creation.
But why would you create the possessed?
I didn’t, they chose to be possessed I chose to give them life so they can still come into my arms no matter how far they are.
What is ‘life’?
Well you lost it didn’t you? It’s the gift I gave to you roam the Earth and help me in whatsoever way you could.
What if I’m disabled?
No matter the defect, everyone has a special talent; it’s how you use it that matters.
Like how?
Well, let’s use Adolf Hitler as an example. He was said to be evil and murdered thousands of people, but he didn’t do it alone. He had armies and armies of people, they-
How did they follow him? Why would they follow him?
It’s because of his talent. You see, since he wasn’t a great artist, Hitler gained all his armies because of his great ability to give speeches. The word is one of the many ways to get people to follow you, much like the Bible. He would give hour long speeches and everyone would listen, much like you. They listened and followed him.
Well was he god on Earth then?
No he wasn’t. Moses, bring me the tables of the Ten Commandments.
Ummm, LORD, what are those?
These are tablets.
No…those are rocks…
…..These are….First Generation Tablets….
…
Anyway look, One) there is no other god then the One True GOD. Six) you should not murder. Nine) you should not commit false accusations about your neighbor.
So that means what exactly?
He broke my commands. He killed innocent people who were falsely accused for being inferior. And you, there is NO OTHER god then the ONE TRUE GOD.
Alright.
So what is your talent?
I don’t know! You’re the one who should know everything, why are you asking me?
That is because you never asked. Everything was in front of you, you just never asked me to show you which was the right one.
Well, I can’t sing, I can’t play an instrument, I can’t give speeches, I’m scared to go in front if strangers-
You had friends right?
Yah?
Who were they to you before you met them?
…strangers…..
Unless you try, you would have never known. But I didn’t give you that talent. You don’t ‘have’ to sing to give me praise, you can to all sorts of things, that is why I made you human, so you can chose what to do. Let your creativity flow.
Well, I did like to create animations back as a kid.
Well, what could you have done with that?
I don’t know! Stop asking me the questions! You’re the one with all the answers, you should know.
Yes, I have all the answers, so when you were unsure, why did you not ask me first? (Philippians 4:6-7)
….there is no excuse I can give LORD. But then, why didn’t you tell me?
Because you never asked. (Mathew 7:7; Luke 11:9)
So Sunday School can help…
What did you watch in Sunday School?
Some kiddy cartoons with Holy morals.
Well, maybe if you did that it could have helped some children get closer to Me.
I’m sorry LORD…
Sorry? Sorry for what?
Sorry what I have not done. Sorry for not helping you and your people. Sorry for not using what you have given me to praise your name.
Well, where to now?
YOU MUST DECIDE!

A note to the reader:
This is a small discussion between the person and GOD. This person was a pure hearted person who followed GOD but did nothing to honor His name. That’s what we do. We listen and follow him, but what did we do? What can we do? Everything that breaths must praise the LORD, so what can you do? Even if it’s simple like writing a story or doing animations or even singing, anything that GOD has given to you can be used to praise His name. So what are you going to do now? Are you going to wait until opportunity open the door or are you going to ask and have GOD open the door? Remember, one country isn’t small, but it isn’t big either. If you want to reach the world use the media. “The media!? But isn’t that…bad?” It isn’t bad; it’s just how you use it that seems ‘bad’ or ‘good’. And plus, GOD made the media to help you to reach that goal, so everything you need to do is in GOD’s hands, not yours. What has GOD given you to use?
