Imagine walking up to your mailbox and finding an envelope addressed to you. In the upper left-hand corner, where the return address is supposed to go, appears the word "God." Read the following letter aloud and then use the questions to start a faith conversation:
My Dear Child,
I love you. I desire to spend as much time with you as possible. I took great joy in being part of your creation and your salvation. I consider My sacrifice for you as a sign of My immeasurable love for you. My child, I want the best for you. I believe in you. I look forward to our daily times together. It gives Me great pleasure to spend time with you. Don't forget, I'm always with you.
Love, God
1.) How would you feel?
2.) What kind of decisions would you want to make about spending time with God?
3.) The average person probably spends more than two hours a day watching television or surfing online, two hours a day listening to music, one hour a day dressing and grooming, and one hour a day eating. And yet the majority of people spend little or no time each day with God. A wise pastor once asked, "What is so important that you can't spend 15 minutes a day with God?" What's your answer?
4.) What makes it so difficult to set up a regular daily time with God?
