Adam walks in from the garden of Eden and pops down a seat on God's heavenly coffee bar. This is in an alternate Universe created by God where woman and man were created at the same time and Adam has not ventured to seek any one in particular out yet as a mate.
A: sigh......
G: That was a mighty big sigh for such a small creation. What's on your mind?
A: I just don't get it.
G: What?
A: Woman?
G: What do you mean? (God is playing dumb to help Adam learn how to think)
A: One minute I'm swinging from the trees with my bro John and having a grand time.The next minute I'm snorkling around the tree of life out off the West coast of Jordan and soaking up the sunshine. But whenever I have a moment that John or Jim or susan or lacey and I aren't hanging out, or I'm not spending enough time with you......
G: (smirk)
A: What was that for? What was that smirk for?
G: Something is missing huh?
A: I don't know, its just like, there is this girl out there, and I haven't met her yet, but its like she is watching me and I can never catch her in the act. It's like our souls were meant to be sharing everything and enjoying life together, but we can just never get close enough to actually meet.
G: There isn't.
A: Huh?
G: Well, there is a woman, and she is out there, but she isn't stocking you or anything. What you are feeling is normal.
A: normal?
G: Yeah, I created you in particular to have that yearning in your heart for a woman. You see others romping around the earth with their lovers and you want to share the same joy they have. I created you as an adventurous man, filled with strength, courage, perseverance, and more. But there is one part of you that in order to make fulfill special purposes in your life, I had to make it extra strong, and that is the passion for caring for others deeply.
A: What do you mean, I love my friends, but I'm not obsessed with always having to be there for them.
G: There are more ways of caring for others than actually being around them, you'll understand as you live longer. In the meantime listen to me. It is okay to feel like there is a missing place in your heart that someone should fill. Don't believe the lies others tell you about you needing to be married before a certain age, or before you build your own tree house or raft for the Amazon river, just trust my timing. Have I lead you wrong yet?
A: no. I don't know why I doubt you so much, you have never let me down.
G: I know why you doubt me.
A: You do?
G: Because you are human. I love our relationship and cherish it daily.
A: Me too!
G: But to keep it how it is, you had to be what you are, human. The downside to being human is you can't fully comprehend my plans, love, or frankly, me.
So, you must trust me. When you desire to meet her, just think about the stars, planets, fish, animals, and how beautifully and masterfully they flow with each other. Each event in their lives have been perfectly timed according to my plans.
A: sigh
G: I know its hard, but know this, that feeling you keep wanting to be fulfilled.... It will be, and it will be more than you could have ever desired for it to be, on one condition.... you trust and follow me.
A: (Adam smiles...... slides off the coffee bar-stool, and strolls back into the garden.
