A Bigger View

God and I sat on the edge of the roof of my house and looked out over the yard. 

I said, “There’s so many amazing things out there. But none of them would exist without you. You are like the paper that supports the words on a page. I’m wondering if I should spend my time focusing on you rather than on what you support?” 

God said, “You make me wonder why I go to all the trouble.”
