The God Interview
If you've seen the movie GHOST and remember the scenes where Whoopi Goldberg tries to convince Demi Moore that she (Whoopi) has actually spoken to Patrick Swayze you may have a sense of what it was like the day an internationally known psychic walked into my office announcing that God would shortly grant an interview,adding,
"You're all God's got so He has to use YOU."
Needless to say, I closed the door to my office lest a few ears could hear any other fantastic drivel spill from her lips.
"I'm glad you brought me in here. It makes it easier to set up the interview," she said as I closed the door.
"You mean you are going to produce God himself? Are we going to have some sort of 'crossing over' here?"
"Oh, heavens no! Uh, pardon the expression." (With a whisper, she continued,) "I used to say 'hell no' but since linking with Mr. Big himself, I don't dare use the phrase.
Arthur, God wants you in this room tomorrow morning at 4:30 a.m. SHARP and says that the rest will be handled for you. You just be here!"
"You'd better explain yourself." I told her, thinking of how to get a 911 responder to believe my reason for calling.
She explained.
Article space is precious and it would take up too much space to relate how she convinced me to at least give God a chance to show up at the appointed time. Since tomorrow morning I had planned to start work on my next article before leaving for my real job, I decided to get up real early so as to humor the lady and assuming God would not show, I could still get some work done.
Next morning I was no sooner in my office and reaching for the light when the light switch activated before I could touch it.
And there was light.
A voice, not loud, not soft, not a whisper but then not a shout either ... spoke quite forcefully.
"Sit down son. After turning on your light for you, I'm only going to give you one other miracle."
There wasn't time to go through any theatrics of shock and awe. I heard the quite command and I obeyed.
As I sat down at my desk, I suddenly spied a shape in the side chair opposite my desk. The shape clarified itself and I found myself staring at a distinguished old man dressed in a long white robe with gold trim edging casually sitting in my side chair. There was no pillar of fire and no aura around him but I knew somehow that He was legitimate.
