Summertime

I lay back on the grass looking up at the clouds go drifting by. Beside me lays my friend and guider. He delights in my happiness and weeps at my sadness. The sun begins to set and the sunset is beauitful. I begin to feel sad and my friend picks up on it. "What's wrong?" He asks looking at me with deep concern on his face. "I don't want today to end, it has so amazing and now you have to go." Is my sad reply. "What do you mean?" He asks. "Well, you have to go home to your family now don't you?" "No, I don't. I thought today would show you, I want to be with you always, you are part of my family, I will be with you always." "Really!" I answer in unbelievable surprise. "Of course, you are and of course I am. I want to be with you in every second, every moment, of your life." <font color="magenta"> <i> And it is true, God wants to be with you in every moment of your life. He wants to share your sorrows, delight in your gladness. He wants to be there to catch you if you fall and to dance with you when you are at the peak of your happiness. Nothing you could possibly do will take that love for you away from him. He died on the cross to set you free from sin now will you trust him?
