A Message for God

06-05-2022Weekly ReflectionFr. Michael Straley

After our Confirmation/First communion celebration, one of our young boys came up to me and asked if I would give God a message. Of course, I said “yes”. He handed me this note:

(Ok, I changed some of the spelling.)

Dear God, Thanks for supporting and making us love you. I will always say my prayers, I will respect my parents and you. I will not fight with my sister. I love you soooooo much and I love going to church, it’s amazing. Thanks for making us. Love you (and he signed his name).

Since we are all the Body of Christ, I thought this was a good way to give God the Message.
