A two person drama displaying the names of God,
who He is, and His closeness to us. Often times
the first thing we learn about a person is their
name "hello my name is" fill in the blank. As we
grow in relationship with a person we begin to
know the depth of their character. In scripture
we are introduced to God through a name within
the first sentence "In the beginning God
(Elohim) created..." As we continue to read
scripture and learn the many names of the One
true God, we see that each name points to a
specific characteristic. Our relationship
deepens as we personally learn who God is. In
this short sketch, one character is facing life,
it's problems, it's burdens. The other character
represents God. We see His deep knowledge of us,
and His desire for a relationship with us. As
the one character goes on about the worries, the
lies, the burdens, the "God" character steps
closer each time. Then we see them begin to take
steps towards each other until in the end He
reaches out His hand and the other character
hands the bag of burdens over. Surrender.
 
Note: while this was originally done with a
woman as Character 1 and a man as Character 2, character 1 could be played by a man.
