FW: An L.A. chat with Jesus

Many times when I am troubled or confused, I find comfort in sitting in my back yard and having a quiet conversation with Jesus.
This happened to me the other night, 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."

And 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 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 sit and chat with you some more, seƱor, but I have to finish your lawn now
