Dear God,
We
communicate quite often through prayers. This is one of those rare occasions,
where I am penning a letter to You. I am not really sure that with so many
people around the globe just on Planet Earth alone (not to forget the scores of
galaxies out there in the vast space), seeking Your attention and guidance on
various matters, starting from trivial issues like children scoring high marks
in a class test to more serious issues like people fighting terminal diseases
or natural disasters or violence or crime, you have the time to look through my
letter! Nevertheless, I am hoping that you will give it a glance!
Firstly, my Salutations to You, the King of
Creation, the Eternal Life Manager and the Brilliant Manager of the Cosmos! You
have truly been a benevolent creator, bestowing upon Mankind the wondrous gifts
of Nature like Sun, Moon, Stars, Clouds, Rain etc. In fact, Nature in all its
splendor is probably one of Your greatest gifts to Man. Nature is like an
invisible mother to man, who finds expression in her many manifestations like
rivers, forests, mountains, oceans, etc.
You,
the Great Almighty, have gone a step further in Your creativity and made man
special by giving him the ability to think and distinguish right from wrong! Being
human myself, I feel grateful for this characteristic bestowed on the human
race. But the modern age with its rampant industrialization and technological
advancement has led man into a spree of deforestation resulting in
pollution and global warming which have had a disastrous impact on the climate
of the world and left the environment in a poor shape.
Nature
has unleashed its fury in the form of devastating floods and earthquakes around
the world. The fast world has rendered man a machine. In the race to make
money, somewhere the human values have taken a back seat and violence and crime
has gripped the world. This is a very sorry state of affairs. Ethics have been
pushed behind. Where is the world heading?
I am
sure that You are shocked and devastated by the way, things have turned out in
the modern age! But You are the
director of this drama of life. The world as a stage, has seen many heroes in
the past. It is time now for heroes, men and women of vision and maturity to
take centre stage and battle the challenges of the modern world like pollution,
corruption, violence and crime and eradicate them from society!
I
appeal to You to script this play of life in the modern day world to have a
happy ending characterized by a divine society like You meant it to be in the
first place, driven by wisdom and human values, so that a better world lies in
wait of the future generations. Request
You to grant my wish or prayer, as You deem appropriate.
Thank You for all Your Blessings and Grace!
Yours Faithfully,
A Humble Creation.
