God and Me

I was running like a mad dog
And felt a feather touch on my back
I turned back and saw God smiling
" Hey, you're running too fast..
"Are you in a competition man ?"
"Who are you competing with?"
I had to stop to give God a space
Like friends we walked down the road.

Wonderful! It is so easy to get caught up in the race and forget why we are running. Love the image of a feather touch from God bringing us back to our senses.

O Monterey I loved the interpretation. Do we give God a space in our life? We forget the most important thing. So sad Monterey. Love.God bless/ Rajat
