Sample of script:

My friends, my children.  How I love you all so much. Yes, all of you! Even you who do not follow my will for your lives. I love you all. Many wonder that if I know what the will for your lives should be, then why would I give you opportunity to fail and to experience hurt? I love you all and as a loving Father I would never want to see you hurt. But, also as a loving Father, I have given you the opportunity to choose. I have laid out decisions for you throughout the course of your life. Yes, it would be easy to have your whole live planned out and you just simply follow along, not asking any questions.

But that wouldn’t be fair, now would it? As I created each and every one of you to love and be loves, to laugh and experience joy, I also created you to think and make decisions. I have laid out people in your life for you to encounter who are able to assist you with those decisions and, of course, I am always here to help.
