Faith

I guess everyone at some stage in their lives will start to question the meaning of life and the business of religion and faith will inevitably come into play. Truly what does it mean to believe in a higher being that many call God? And what if one day, God appears to us -

1. Would we know that is God in the first place?
2. If you could ask Him one question, what would it be?

Some may consider the below song to be blasphemous, but listen carefully to the words by Joan Osbourne - One of Us


If God had a name, what would it be?
And would you call it to His face
if you were faced with Him in all His glory,
what would you ask if you had just one question.

And yeah, yeah God is Great
Yeah, yeah, God is Good
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
What if God was one of us?
Just a slob like one of us?
Just a stranger on a bus, trying to make His way home.

If God had a face, what would it look like?
And would you want to see
if seeing meant that you would have to believe
in things like Heaven and in Jesus and the Saints and all the Prophets.

And yeah, yeah God is Great
Yeah, yeah, God is Good
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
What if God was one of us?
Just a slob like one of us?
Just a stranger on a bus, trying to make His way home.
Trying to make his way home, (like a Holy rolling stone) back up to Heaven all alone.
Nobody calling on the phone except for the Pope maybe in Rome.
