To paraphrase Lily Tomlin, "Why is it when we talk to God it's praying but when God talks to us, it means we're crazy?"

I'm more of a deist, so though I don't think God talks specifically to us, I do think He leaves us notes tacked to the fridge. EXAMPLE: I have a friend who *constantly* complains that she has NO inspiration to create art. I don't how she can be like that as I see it everywhere (as in they're God's little notes). This morning's sunrise was amazing! I would love to be able to sit and paint it! (My paint would freeze, though - the curse of the watercolorist.) I don't think she picks up on the notes. :(
