conversation with God

After a long day of work going from one thing to another, I sat at the dinner table tired. Here's something like the brief conversation I had with God.

me: God, I feel kinda empty inside.

God: Yeah, you've been trying to live this day all by yourself, without Me.

me: Oh. I think you're right. I'm really sorry.

God: I'm glad you finally recognized your problem. But it doesn't solve anything until you start spending time with me.

me: Ok. I will. And thanks.

Then, later, Janie and I went out on the porch in the still darkness. As she sat on my lap and laid her head on my shoulder, the only sounds were that of the creaking porch swing we were on, and the frogs and crickets and creatures beyond us. It was very peaceful. And I was reminded of my own insignificance. How someday, time will cease to matter.

But for now, I hope you're living life every moment with Father. I hope you're not reminded to get right with God by reading about my mistake and my proud, self exerted day. Btw, I'm so blessed by how He takes me right back in, with no reserve. I've experienced this so many times, and He never gives up on me.

God bless ya.
