I will
call them
My people,
who were not
My people,
and her
beloved,
who was
not
beloved.
[Romans 9:25]

"LORD?"
(Gentle Voice.)
"Yes,
My child?"
(Squirm.)
(Grimmace.)
(Mumble.)
(Look up, hopefully.)
"IS THE OTHER
LORD, UP THERE?"
"I AM
Right Here,
My child."
"No!
I MEAN....
THE OTHER LORD!"
[GENTLE SMILE!]
"Who,
My precious?"
"Ya KNOW.
The OTHER One!"
[CURIOUS SMILE.]
"Of Whom,
are you speaking,
child?"
(Disappointed frown.)
(Mumble.)
(Look up again,
this time, more woefully.)
"Is GOD,
up THERE?"
(Squint, woefully,
up at the ceiling.)
"Yes,
My beloved.
I AM Here."
(Frown.)
(Silence.)
(Mumbling.)
[SMILING!]
"What happened,
to the OTHER ONE?
Isn't He THERE,
ANYMORE?"
[GENTLE LAUGH.]
"He never
left you,
My beloved!"
"What HAPPENED?
Did He...just,
get so SICK 'n
TIRED,
of US?"
(Look up, squinting.)
"And....
MOVE TO ANOTHER
PLANET?"
[GENTLE SIGH.]
"Never,
My child.
Never."
(Silence.)
(Sip some root beer.)
(Squint.)
"Shouldn't You..
be, with the
GENTILES..
right NOW?"
[BURST OUT LAUGHING!]
"Who is 'You',
My beloved?"
"YOU!
JESUS!"
(Irritable frown.)
"What are Ya
talkin' to me, FOR?
Don't You know,
I'm JEWISH?"
[ANOTHER GENTLE
BURST OF LAUGHTER!]
[WISE LOOK.]
"I know everything,
My beloved."
"Oh."
(Squirm.)
"So.....the FATHER
tells You.....

[NOD.]
[JOYFUL SMILE!]
"Ech."
(Grimmace!)
(Squirm!)
"UGH.

[SMILING.]
"So.....He

"Yes,
My beloved."
(Embarrassed grimmace.)
"Eu."
(Look away.)
(Glance up, at ceiling.)
"That's really DISGUSTING."
"Why,
My precious?"
"Cuz...."
(Squirm.)
"Well....Ya know;
I don't why He
has to tell You...
EVERYTHING.
Can't He just

[BURST OUT LAUGHING!]
"No,
My beloved!
He tells Me.
[TENDER VOICE.]
"Everything."
