Many times when I am troubled or confused, I find comfort in sitting in
my back yard and having a scotch and water along with a quiet
conversation with Jesus. This happened to me again after a particularly
difficult day.
I said "Jesus, why do I work so hard?" And I heard the reply: "Men
find many ways to demonstrate the love they have for their family. You
work hard to have a peaceful, beautiful place for your friends and
family to gather."
I said: "I thought that money was the root of all evil." And the reply
was: "No, the LOVE of money is the root of all evil. Money is a tool;
it can be used for good or bad".
I was starting to feel better, but I still had that one burning
question, so I asked it. "Jesus," I said, "what is the meaning of life?
Why am I here?"
He replied, "That is a question many men ask. The answer is in your
heart and is different for everyone. I would love to chat with you some
more, Señor, but now, I have to finish your lawn."
