Nothing.
I walked into the coffee shop by my old college tonight, and what was intended to be a 5 minute pit stop turned into a three hour chat with some friends that I graduated with. I can say that it was a coincidence, but, after our long talk, I know that it was a little more than that. ;) We all had some part of our tanks that were running a little empty but the true power of fellowship kicked in and we each left with a little more pep in our step :) Anyway, someone mentioned this and I thought I would share because it really struck a chord with me.
During a nationally televised interview with Mother Teresa, the interviewer asked the following questions...
Interviewer: What does God say to you when you pray?
Mother Teresa: "Nothing."
Interviewer: "Then what do YOU say to God when you pray?"
Mother Teresa: "Nothing."................ " and if you dont understand that, then you dont understand God"
hmmmmm.... that made me smile. I wonder why we sometimes take the simplest things and make them so complex??
