Can You See God?
1/22/2006 8:50:31 PM
Author Unknown A small boy once approached his slightly older sister with a question about God. "Susie, can anybody ever really see God?" he asked. Busy with other things, Susie curtly replied: "No, of course not silly. God is so far up in heaven that nobody can see him." Time passed, but his question still lingered so he approached his mom: "Mom, can anybody ever really see God?" "No, not really," she gently said. "God is a spirit and he dwells in our hearts, but we can never really see Him." Somewhat satisfied but still wondering, the youngster went on his way. Not long afterwards, his saintly old grandfather took the little boy on a fishing trip. They were having a great time together. The sun was beginning to set with unusual splendor and the grandfather stared silently at the exquisite beauty unfolding before them. On seeing the face of his grandfather reflecting such deep peace and contentment, the little boy thought for a moment and finally spoke hesitatingly: "Granddad, I--I-- wasn't going to ask anybody else, but I wonder if you can tell me the answer to something I've been wondering about a long time. Can anybody - can anybody ever really see God?". The old man did not even turn his head. A long moment slipped by before he finally answered. "Son," he quietly said. "It's getting so I can't see anything else." Marilyn L. Ali

Hello again Marilyn, I see you have been at work again, keeping us inspired and thought nudging. Seeing God physically, I believe, as human beings, we probably could not handle it. We have to be satisfied in seeing through evryone we meet, God is present in each one of us and enables us if we choose to, to be His eyes, His ears, His comforting arms, and His bleeding heart. Thanks again for sharing this story, Your friend, Louis http://www.yorgoo.com/?1850

HI Louis, Yes, I have been back to work! I didn't do much during the week, as you know, because of not feeling well. So, I am playing a little bit of catch up. Thanks for your great response. I tend to agree with you! God Bless! Marilyn
