I think Jesus must get tired of listening to
everyone’s prayers. I mean, day in and day
out, the incessant chatter of all the little
mouths beseeching him for this or that – it
must drive him bonkers.
I think maybe he doesn’t really listen to all
the prayers.
Maybe he’s like those big shot celebrities
who only read one or two pieces of fan mail
and then leave it to their staffs to send out
response letters and glossy photos. Hell,
some of them don’t even do that. I once
wrote to John Denver and the little MF
stiffed me – not even an acknowledgement.
Hey John! If you can hear me up there in
heaven (assuming that’s where you ended
up) , I just want to say that you burst my
bubble. You seemed so sensitive but you
turned out to be a big phony. Rocky
Mountain High, my ass. And now that
you’re rubbing shoulders with the savior,
you probably have even less time for a
personal message to us little people. Why
am I not surprised?
