Marla and Gideon just sat there staring at me when the door closed. Finally Marla asked, "Well, what do you think, John?"
"Think?What do I think? This is probably the most inconceivable thing that has ever happened to me and you're asking me what I think? It's impossible for me to think at all."
"Accept this with an open mind," said Gideon,"and you'll find there are different ways to approach life."
There was a tremendous sense of peace and joy when he was near and, yet,I still could not consciously bring myself to believe that he was The God. He walked over to his chair and sat down. Looking me straight in the eye,he said,"John, you don't really believe all of this, do you?"It was more a statement than a question.
"Well, I must admit that I'm puzzled."
"I am God.I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end,First Cause, Jehovah, Yahweh, Yeshua, Allah. I am I, Lord God Almighty, The First Force. What did you expect to see? What do you think God should look like? An old bearded man sitting on a throne? Dozens of angels dancing around him, her or it? God is God and is all things to all people."
He gave the appearance of a man totally in control of himself. His voice and tone were not in the least reprimanding, but rather compassionate and kind. I didn't know what to say so I blurted out the first thing that came to mind. "How come,"
I asked,"I'm here with you, when there are many others more deserving of an audience than I?"
"That's one of the problems," he said. "Almost everyone thinks that I'm unreachable, that I only speak to special people at special times. Listen carefully: Everyone is special to me. I speak to everyone, but not all listen. I appear to eve- ryone in many ways, but not all see me. Do you remember that little child you gave some money to the other day?That was me speaking to your heart and feelings. Do you remember the time you stopped and helped an old man fix a flat tire on the bridge? That was me again."
"You mean that you care about little things like flat tires?"
"Of course I care. And there are no little things, only people who tend to look at things and call them little. Take a rose, for example."And as he said that, as if by magic,a beautiful rose appeared in his hand. "Consider its intricacies. Surely, not a little thing.I love roses. They brighten everyone's life. In fact,I love everything I've created."
"Well, if you are God, why do you have an office in the Big City? How is it that you're president and chairman of the board of G & M Enterprises, anyway?"
"G & M stands for God and Man. It's my ‘earth' company. What better place to have an office than in the Big City? We have branches in almost every city. In every town and village you can find us. We also have a number of subsidiaries. Marla and Gideon are from the corporate office. Marla is in P.R.—‘people recycling', in this case and Gideon is a trouble- shooter—special projects. You're one of his projects."
"It sounds so business-oriented, as if the entire world were a giant corporation."
