A conversation with Jesus

Many times when I am troubled or confused, I find comfort in sitting
in my back yard and having a glass of tea along with a quiet
conversation with Jesus.
This happened to me, again, after a particularly difficult day.
I said "Jesus, why do I work so hard?" And I heard the reply, "Men
find many ways to demonstrate the love they have for their family.
You work hard to have a peaceful, beautiful place for your friends
and family to gather."
I said, "I thought that money was the root of all evil."
And the reply was, "No, the love of money is the root of all
evil. Money is merely a tool; it can be used for good or bad".
I was starting to feel better, but I still had that one burning
question, so I asked it. "Jesus," I said, "What is the meaning of
life? Why am I here?"
He replied, "That is a question many men ask. The answer is in your
heart and is different for everyone. I would love to chat with you
some more, Senor, but for now, I have to finish your lawn."
