Max's conversation with God
God, what is Your real name?My real name is Max.
That’s my name, I won’t give You my name.
Then what name do you want Me to have?
I want You to have the name Water.
Water! That’s a fine name. From now on if you can call Me by that name, I shall respond.
God, I’ll tell You a secret. My mother has taught me that the other name of Water is Life.
Now My child, I’ll tell you another secret. The other name of Life is God.
Can I tell my mother Your secret?
Certainly you can.
God, I really thank You for telling me a top secret.
