God's Cruel Joke

once while planning to take a picture i thought about how i could get God to pose of course i could use a distingushing suit but for a picture with God a suit is of little use then i thought of the obvious a wonderful plan i would take a picture with Gods word in my hand still as of yet i have not posed for that picture but at times i ponder pleasantly on when i'll take the picture until one day it was cruelly exposed i already had a picture of God and just didn't know pulling down the sun vissor inside my truck a cut out picture of Allanis Morrisette she played God in a movie called "Dogma" it frightened me at first for obvious reasons but when i think of God i think that this is the kind of joke he would play so, allanis morrisette will stay i will not worship her or say that she is God but when ever i see that picture i'll see a picture of God

Nice that God has a sense of humor and can play a joke. God is everywhere so why not in a picture of Allanis. Phyl

John, I saw that movie. I love Steve's comment. I have a few I can think of myself : ). Seriously though, more here to this write than one would think at first. A funny take on a personal and serious subject. Well done. Love, Shar

Excellent writing and concept, John! My own "image" of God is obviously based on the Biblical descriptions, but I know He/She may truly have an image that is beyond our comprehension. You said a lot here, John, and you said it well. Love, Carolyn

why when ever you take a picture of a beautiful landscape, a wonderful mountain, the rain, the snow, the sunshine, anything in nature and all it's surroundings, isn't that god at his best? A very interesitng write John! Thank you for commenting on my work , always appreciated.

Isn't it Ironic...don't ya think...a little too ironic (Nothing in that song is actually ironic) I think God may be too much for us to "see" possibly...so then perhaps our mind works out a physical representation for us to be familiar with. Your's can be Alannis Morrisette...mine can be, hmm...I don't know--Willie Nelson? I haven't worked that out yet...but it's fun to think about!! Much love, Steve
