the agnostic

      i whipped into a small gas station,

      “uhm sir,

      could you fill it up please?

      i’m kind of in a big hurry

      i’m on my way to the airport.”

      “oh, you are, are you?

      where are you going, lady?”

      “oklahoma city.”

      “going to visit friends there?”

      “no, sir, i’m going to speak.”

      “what do you speak about?”

      and i stuck my head out of the car window

      and i said,

      “hi, sir. my name is ann.

      did you really want to know?”

      “yeah, that’s why i asked.”

      “well you see, sir,

      Jesus Christ is the Lord of my life.

      he laughs with me

      and cries with me

      and...”

      “i’m an agnostic, ma’am.”

      “wow! an AGNOSTIC?

      a real AGNOSTIC?

      uhm, tell me sir,

      do you have any problems?”

      “yeah, i’ve got a lot of them.”

      “tell me one.”

      he squatted down beside my window

      and looked in as he said,

      “i’m so insignificant.”

      his face was sober

      and his voice was so bitter

      as he said,

      “i’m so insignificant.”

      “sir, me too.

      i’m just an ordinary girl

      but Jesus adds a lot
