A Prayer Different From All Others

Chips Opened for God (the series “Miracle Workers”)

The series “Miracle Workers” presents many threads concerning the relationship between God and Souls who, in my understanding, have direct access to Him.

The story revolves around several characters from God’s closest circle, which is nevertheless subject to constant rotation. At the beginning of their employment, the film’s protagonists are full of enthusiasm. However, they lose it when they see the complete ineptitude of the film’s benevolent God. Examples of this helplessness are shown continuously.

In one scene, God called in his secretary, saying to her, “I need you, today we have very important matters to handle.” He then handed her a package of chips to open. After some time, it was shown how many snack packages she had opened, because a shelf was already filled with toy cars—the kind often added as purchase incentives for children. Presumably, there was also someone employed to dust, someone to sort documents, some archivist, and not only them. The film’s God could not operate a television, much less a microphone to speak with an earthling.

I think the film’s God forcibly selected helpers, giving them trivial tasks to perform.

At one time I wondered how it is, however, with the real God.

I remember my own astonishment in the 1990s. At that time, I was deeply immersed in books about the readings of Edgar Cayce. He authoritatively claimed that God is the true physician and that all healing depends on Him. I received this skeptically. How God? After all, we have medicine, and God is far away, who knows where. What would God know about healing, about the causes of illness? I no longer think that way, since cancerous spots disappeared from someone’s skin within three days—but only after a prayer was performed. Link.

Relating the film scenes to the real God and to His surroundings, it is probably our Souls that are closest there.

Why does the film’s God assign only trivial tasks?

Because in this way He teaches each Soul independence. In the film, these lessons focus on four characters who completely fail to cope. Therefore, opening packages of chips seems an appropriate form of initial education—especially considering that at one point he greeted a group of schemers with the phrase, “Hey there, DRUNKARDS.”

Anyone may rush to rule galaxies, according to the principle that if he can do it, so can I. Except that the effects may be destructive. Thus, snacks do not seem bad. They are assigned according to the measure of our own abilities.

Similarly, a medal carved from a carrot. When a small child desperately wants to help in the kitchen or with cleaning, they too receive some harmless activity to perform—so they feel needed, but without causing damage.
