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.”
