#347.2 – “Play with Me”

“The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.” - Psalms 46:7
Last night Grant came up beside our bed (which I was already in and getting ready to go to sleep) and asked me if I would play with him. His brother and his sisters were in their respective rooms, playing on their own… and he didn’t have anyone with which to play. I was pretty exhausted and really didn’t feel like getting up playing anything like hide-and-seek, so I suggested a compromise: thumb-wrestling. Thumb-wrestling is a great sport at which young and old(er) can all enjoy, with minimal effort. And that’s what we did; we had several matches right there on my bed. Within a few minutes, some other would-be participants were standing around watching, waiting for their turn to take on the champion.
I am grateful that God is never too tired for me. He never turns me down when I want to talk; He never tells me to come back later. He is always there for me.
Father, thank You for being there… all of the time.

Daniel
