 Note: This was a question on Facebook. If You Had an Interview with Christ in Two Minutes, What Would You Say? Here is my answer:

 If it is in person, I would know Him...recognize Him. I think He would hold me in His arms and I would not want to leave. I would be at His feet, telling him how much I love Him, thanking Him for what he has done for me...

BUT, He would ask me what I have done with what He has given me. He would already know... but I would tell him how how I treated others, how I love and showed love to my husband and children, how I told others about Him. He has given me my life, my physical body. Did I treat it with reverence, as a temporal home for His spirit, or did I abuse it? He blessed me to be born into a family who taught me about the Gospel of Christ. Did I tell others about Him and His gospel? 

Did I keep the covenants I've made with Him? I made a covenant to take His name upon me. Did I live my life as an example of Him? Do that others know I am a Christian? I made a covenant with Him to keep His commandments. Did I? I have covenanted with Him to love others. Did I treat others as He would?

I DO indeed have personal interviews with Him, every time I take the sacrament that represents His body and His sacrifice for me. I ponder on what He has done for me, and what I have done that week with it and the covenants I have made with Him. Did I repent for the sins I've committed, so He didn't have to suffer, atoning for my sins in vain? I also take time to pray every day when I report as to how I have done that day. Have I felt promptings through the spirit and followed them? He will already know, because I report to Him daily.

I don't think the interview would be done vocally, because we have communicated by the Spirit while I have been on Earth, and I feel that Spirit to Spirit, is a better form of communication, since we not only hear, but feel, when we communicate.
