Paint-by-numbers

I had a conversation with God last night. He did most of the talking. It went like this...

God: "So, yesterday in your blog you wrote about the plans of hope and a future that I have for you."

Allison: "Yes."

God: "And you really believe that, right?"

Allison: "Of course!"

God: "Hmmm..."

God: "Do you also believe that I am the creator of all things; that I am the potter and you are the clay?"

Allison: "Yes."

God: "So, you are convinced that I am going to create a unique master piece of art that is your life?"

Allison: "Yeah (with a slight attitude of frustration)!"

God: "Then when are you going to stop trying to live a paint-by-numbers faith life?"
