586. A perfect gentleman

I sleep at night;
Therefore
God does not disturb my sleep.
Who else could be such a perfect gentleman?

I work during the day;
Therefore
God does not disturb my work.
Who else could be such a perfect gentleman?

If I meditate anytime,
Only then will God come and converse with me.
He does not come unwanted.
He is a perfect gentleman, after all.
