Travis and God, I, 2.
2003
Travis: (entering) Uh…Lord?
God: Yo.
Travis: You got a minute?
God: No, I’m really busy.
Travis: Oh, sorry.
God: Kidding! Geesh, can’t we have a little fun?
Travis: Oh. Look Lord, I’ve got this problem.
God: Good. Give it to me.
Travis: Well…this is performing arts camp and everything and..well… did you see (name an act and what they did) (like “Johnny sing?”) ______________ .
God: I was in the second row.. and the third and the fourth and…
Travis: He/she was really good, Lord.
God: Thanks. I wrote the song. So what’s your problem, Trav?
Travis: Well..I mean, they’re all so good. I don’t have any talent like that.
God: I know.
Travis: Thanks a lot.
God: You’ve got other talents, Trav.
Travis: Then I don’t know what they are.. I can’t sing like _______, I can’t dance like ____________.
God: Have you accepted my as your savior, Travis?
Travis: Well..yea..last year here at camp. But what’s that got to…?
God: Did somebody dance you into salvation? Somebody sing you into heaven?
Travis: No. ___________ prayed with me. They said they loved me enough that they wanted me to find Christ like they did.
God: Wow. Now that’s a talent, Trav. That’s the one you’ve got…the biggest and best talent of all.
Travis: Oh.
God: Yea. Trav, if you pray about bringing others to Christ, you’re gonna be the most powerful guy on the planet. No song and dance…just Jesus.
Travis: (a long beat, then) You know, you have the answer to everything don’t you?
God: (beat, then) You ain’t seen nothin’ yet. Now get out there and do Satan some damage. I really don’t have time to talk any more.
Travis: Oh. Thanks. (starts to exit, then it hits him) Kidding?
God: Kidding.
Travis: You go with me?
God: I’m already there. Let’s go put on a show. (Travis exits)
